[quote=Anonymous]I complain about my parents' alleged frugality. They reuse aluminum foil and ziploc bags multiple times. They were deemed capable of paying for me to attend Harvard by the financial aid department, but my dad told me he was saving for his retirement so I went elsewhere on a merit scholarship. My dad enrolls in clinical trials and mock juries to make money. Takes a freelance job to make a few bucks the day of a family gathering he drove 15 hours to get to, so he spent all 3 hours of the gathering on the computer. When he's done with a car, he sells the clunker to a poor person, so a parade of poor people come to see the car and he haggles. His shirt pocket sags from coupons excerpted from his huge file drawer of alphabetized coupons. He wears the same Members Only jacket since the 80s, at all times including meals except July and August. Brags that he gets his hair cut only twice a year.[/quote]
