A friend wears torn shoes, recycles aluminium foils, plastic cups and things, walks half an hour from station to office, does everything to save money.
But recently he lost his wallet with a few thousand rupees in it, and a watch worth five thousand because he travels second class, the sure way to lose your money, and, with Bombay as it is, your life even. I wonder why he is still being so tight fisted and risking his life for a few rupees.
Spend more, let the money circulate is what I would say to him.

Fully agree, John. Of course, you must have the money in the first place to be able to spend it. Or get saddled with huge credit card bills.
