      Agreed. I’m told there was a time when thrift was considered a societal virtue, not just something you did if you had no other choice. I’d rather take pride in making do with what I have, fixing things when they break, and reusing parts from broken stuff in new projects than in trying to demonstrate wealth or buy my way to contentment.

      Especially, if you cut some larger items and are able to reduce the time you have to work.
