Interesting article below. If you are Chinese you'll be wonder what's
so great about it. That's how myself and everybody I know had always
lived. What's your take?

As a teenager, Anna Shepard was mortified by her mother's thrifty
habits
- no heating, lukewarm baths and yesterday's leftovers. Now she's
inherited the 'frugal gene' - and she's proud of it
Saturday June 14, 2008
The Guardian
It's 1985. I am five years old and I'm staring at my lunchbox. All
around me, children are ripping into packets of Monster Munch and
Peperamis. I've got yesterday's quiche and a tomato sliced in half,
spilling seeds everywhere. And there's something else at the bottom,
possibly a homemade rock bun, but I can't be sure. There isn't enough
clingfilm to stop it from becoming unidentifiably soggy.

Enlightenment is idleness which no one can afford today, PaPaPend,
least of all, you. So get busy and do something instead of repeating
foolishness and idiotic Confucius sayings.
