[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Were your families so frugal because they were living off investment returns/dividends/family allowances? Most people were frugal in the old days, but I assume your wasp ancestors were quite wealthy. Was it on paper only? Were they trying to hold on to fortunes from a bygone era? Or do you think that’s just how people were in that era and they were no different?[/quote] It was vulgar and tasteless to be wasteful, even if you were wealthy. Now, it’s some sort of weird flex to replace things that don’t need replacing just because you can. [/quote] This. Or replace things because they are “dated” or “look tired.”[/quote]
