I like having a well calibrated monitor, but in all honesty, it isn't entirely necessary in my scenario.
Who can honestly say that they NEED a well calibrated monitor? If so, why?

You sound like a designer. Puts together your job print it on an inkjet which isn't postscript and then wonder why the finished job doesn't look the same when printed on a four color press.
If you are doing any color work you should use a calibrated monitor otherwise how can you know everything thing works together. That is why you get correction when a proper color proof is made and it doesn't quite look right. Things which could have been sorted before th proof if you had seen them on screen.
Plus with basic calibrators not costing much they is no reason not to calibrate.
