Summary
‘Hey, look at my new super smart phone.’ ‘Looks great. How much did you pay for it?’ ‘Only $750 after discount. Original price is $900, and I also got a year’s worth of music videos for free. Why don’t you also buy one?’ ‘Sorry, not interested.’ ‘But you can easily afford one, can’t you?’ ‘Of course, I can.’ ‘Then why can’t you buy it? All your friends will envy you.’ ‘Perhaps, but I have decided to become a minimalist.’ ‘Minimalist? What’s that? Some fancy name for stinginess?’ ‘No, it is something better than that.’ ‘Hah, so what next? Cold showers in the winter?’ "No, minimalism will ensure that I don't have cold showers in the winter."
