Most user members use bitcoin both ways, it is an investment but they also use their bitcoin to buy whatever they want or need since the number of people and businesses accepting bitcoin as a payment keeps increasing so it is not rare this is becoming more and more common.

Now I have mostly used my bitcoin to buy digital goods, however there are also many members which have used their bitcoin to buy physical goods as well, and while this is not as common as we may like we are slowly approaching the time in which this will be easier and convenient to do.
