it's smarter for me to spend my meager funds on a really fancy bench

save my spine than go through surgery or - worse - give up on my
sculptures/wood work.

Don't know about a really fancy bench, but if you're seriously concerned
about injury and comfort when doing your woodworking, I'd look into an
adjustable height bench.
