I guess you perceive what I’m saying as a reverse Marie Antoinette instead if let them eat cake let them eat beans. The response seems to be but that’s boring.
Maybe I’m being a jerk. If so I apologize
I feel I’d rather have beans than nothing maybe a little chili powder. I d rather have boxed wine than nothing. And even though I could buy steak, I’d rather eat the beans and sometimes the cheapest wine and save the difference for a rainy day. I don’t feel deprived when I do that I feel happy.
I saved up money for a downpayment like that w lots of kids and expenses. Now I’m not saving Toward anything in particular but it’s a habit that’s tough to break
The tightwad gazette is the book that lays it all out
