For those of us who only fly for the love of it and have a better source of income, we log time for insurance purposes, currency, and in pursuit of ratings like the instrument.
For both the ones pursuing jobs and the ones who fly strictly for fun, counting hours is nice just for personal records, for knowing exactly how much time you've spent in the air, and to have an answer when your great-uncle who soloed once but never got his license asks you, "How many hours ya got, sonny?"
