False Economy Reflections on Poverty and Wealth
An older writer urges focusing on reasonable spending and self care rather than extreme frugality. He cites examples from Ben Franklin and a Missouri court anecdote, contrasting two men in a pursuit for success—one costly in dignity, the other frugal to his downfall. He questions true wealth versus ostentatious poverty and ends with a note on a Paterson manufacturer jailed for drunkenness.
