[Quote No.16541] Need Area: Money > Spend
"Frugality is good if liberality were joined with it. The first is leaving off superfluous expenses; the last is bestowing them for the benefit of those who need. The first, without the last, begets covetousness; the last without the first begets prodigality." - William Penn

[Quote No.18526] Need Area: Money > Spend
"No blister draws sharper than interest on money. It works day and night; in fair weather and foul. It gnaws at a man's substance with invisible teeth. It binds industry with its film, as a fly is bound with a spider's web. Debt rolls a man over and over, binding him hand and foot, and letting him hang on the fatal mesh, till the long legged interest devours him. One had better make his bed of Canada thistles, than attempt to lie at ease upon interest." - Henry Ward Beecher
(1813 - 1887) American clergy

" 'If you don’t ask, you don’t get' is as true when buying as when selling. A new study from 'Consumer Reports' found that more than 90 percent of the study participants when they politely asked for discounts [i.e. 'Is there any 'give' on the price?'] on items like furniture, electronics, and even medical bills were successful, especially when they spoke to or asked the sales clerks to check with the store managers (who have more authority to reduce prices than the sales clerks)." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.28412] Need Area: Money > Spend
"There are plenty of well-publicized ways to have a good time without spending any money. Strolling through street fairs. Browsing in bookstores and libraries. Listening to free concerts. But it's the stuff you stumble across almost by accident that gives the most pleasure. The 99-cent breakfast special I took advantage of all summer long at a Florida beachfront cafe. (Okay. So it was served on a paper plate with a plastic fork. Who cares?) Hanging over the fence to watch polo ponies being exercised. Free preview performances by a semi-professional neighborhood drama club.
The fact that things like this cost nothing - or almost nothing - only adds to the enjoyment." - Judith Strauss

"The biggest suggestion I have is to avoid credit cards. Interest rates are very high on credit cards. Sometimes they are 18 percent. Sometimes they are 20 percent. If I borrowed money at 18 or 20 percent, I’d be broke.... So if I had one piece of advice for [all people especially] young people generally it would be to just avoid credit cards." - Warren Buffett

[Quote No.29169] Need Area: Money > Spend
"[To control spending and live happily on a budget, which all financially wise people do, requires a person to reduce their desire for expensive things. Contrary to what advertising keeps trying to tell you, expensive things will not make you happier or more respected. It is important if you ever want to be financially secure to be highly sceptical of all advertising, which is designed to make you feel dissatisfied with what you have. Every time you see an ad seriously question whether the benefits would really be there and most importantly worth the cost for you. Also deliberately take the time to be grateful for what you already have - so rather than think how it could be better, be grateful it is not worse. And remember, in this regard 'less is more' for]...those who have the greatest desires are in a worse condition than those who have none or very slight ones." - Plato
Ancient Greek philosopher. From his work, 'Eryxias'
