I am not saying be a penny pincher, but don't also be penny wise, and pound foolish. Don't let your ability to skydive, or your ease with heights push you to the point of diving without a parachute.
We have this notorious culture of taking wastefulness for good taste, and the dislike of minimalism as a class act. So most of us end up entangling ourselves in some useless class-struggle, expecting our acts of recklessness to be an emergency on other people.
But maybe just like English and Mathematics and in some instances Science, it is becoming a pressing need to equally add the science of prudence, entrepreneurship and management of cashflow to our pool of core subjects. Make them compulsory in the national curriculum.
