I'm kind of a saver too,
My grandmother and Nick grandmother both experienced starvation and poverty. Afterr Nick's granny has passed, they continued to find food hidden around the house. My granny never threw away food, she considered it a great sin. Regardless to our earnings, she glued broken dishes, patched old clothes. These injuries are very deep and are transmitted through genetic memory. So, we are both savers.
you have to enjoy the good things in life
You are right, given the number of opportunities ) I'm glad that I asked 🙂
