Reviews
On Nov 25 2010, Thissideofgaudy said:
This book presents a brief history of thrift in America and why it was/is practiced. The author presents examples from people as diverse as Benjamin Franklin, her father and a former investment banker who now works as a dominatrix. Along the way we learn of motives ranging from a deep-seated hatred of waste of any kind to a temporary strategy for surviving a crisis. There is something here for everyone who is considering their impact on the world through their use of material goods.
