I don't think I ever had just one set. When I moved away from home I got a couple of sets with me from my parents home. And from there I bought by own. I would give the "oposite advice" I think: You only need two sets, not more. At least until you get yourself a family, and/or until you have a large enough home where you might receive guests on regular basis.

I just moved into an apartment alone. I realized 2 is not enough. I had one dirty, one that needed changing, and my washing machine needed two to be full (along with two towels), and they take 1-2 days to dry. We don't use tumble dryers here. So 3 is the magic number to always have one available while 2 are being washed.

Why wouldn't you just wash your sheets with something else though? You don't only need to wash sheets with sheets.
