When a student in my creative writing class noticed that I printed exercise forms on the unused side of sheets on which previous classroom handouts had been printed, she said, “Only a tightwad would do that.”
“So? What’s wrong with being tight? Tightwads are thrifty, and thriftiness is a good practice. I don’t believe in wasting anything, so I use both sides of all sheets of paper,” I answered.
“Whatever,” she shrugged indifferently, confirming what I already knew: Nowadays, most young people don’t give much thought to fiscal responsibility.
I live reasonably well on pauper’s pay (I’m a college teacher), but only because my budget requires strict accounting of all expenditures. I have learned that frugal people find ways to survive, even in difficult economic times.
