The Quality of Life
  I enjoy life more when I can live infinitely cheap, that is, except for taxes and bureaucratic fees.  So now I have to get a job to make enough to give the bureaucrats their due.  Thus I can no longer live cheap because I no longer have the time to stretch resources and rebuild what I use.
  It quickly gets to the point where it's easier to spend money than to save it justified by the quality of life.  It becomes easier to buy a meal than prepare one.  It gets easier to buy new clothes than to mend them.  And while we're at the store we see things that will make our life easier and we justify the expense because it saves time and bolsters our psyche so we can be more efficient with our time at home and at work.  All to soon living gets too expensive and we don't enjoy any of it.
