Being cheap is a personality disorder and should be classified as a disease. Prove me wrong

> Being cheap is a personality disorder and should be classified as a disease. Prove me wrong.

GF is 28, making 130k and lives with me. She pays no rent, no utilities, no groceries. I am ok with that because I am well off so I don't care. Her little brother kills himself. We go to the UK to deal with the mess. She calls mortician offices, and starts haggling for the price.

"What's the cheapest coffin you have? $200? What if we don't use a coffin at all, can we just cover the body with a sheet and burn it? yeah no special clothes either, I can give you some, or no clothes at all".
"What about transportation of the ashes?" a very troubled mortician asks. "I 'll take the ashes on the plane with me in the carry on".

I 've never felt more uncomfortable in my life. She makes 130k per year and pays for nothing!!! (rent in for my place is $2800 that I cover all by myself). What if I was married to her and I died first? She'd flush me down the toilet.

Anyway, I broke up with her and kicked her out. I think that being cheap, cheap and frugal, is a psychological disease and might stem from trauma or whatever. What do /biz amateur psychologist frens think?

cheap and NOT frugal* sorry

Did you rape her on the way out?

>What if I was married to her and I died first? She'd flush me down the toilet.

Lolled.

fucking kek, I’m a pretty frugal guy myself but you made the right choice OP
10/10 fiction

Kek. Good read.

It's real dude. It's 100% real I swear to god. We 're in SF thus the high rent price and her high tech-startup salary. I confronted her about being cheap during the break up and she got mad, said she never had issues with money etc.

Of course, she left all of her stuff, furniture etc, at my place except of a suitcase with clothes she took with her. And I bet my place will be her locker room until she stops crashing at friends couches...

Kek. Nice work.

Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, Calvin Ayre, The 8btc mod (19hZx234vNtLazfx5J2bxHsiWEmeYE8a7k), Jiang Zhouer, the bitcoin.com cofounder, the Coinbase founder - all BILLIONAIRES who can complete the flippening with their own cash TODAY.
They're not doing so because they'd rather invest in BCH adoption. BCH adoption is skyrocketing while btc adoption is dropping.
In a few years both St Kitts and Antigua will use BCH as their main currency (Roger is working on St Kitts, Calvin is investing in Antigua more money than their GDP exclusively because of BCH adoption), Craig Wright will increase transaction counts by circumventing corrupt governments in Africa for money transfers (this one is not certain but very possible considering his funding), Roger is speaking to VIP-s every other day, including Japanese bank CEO-s, stock exchange owners, etc. Brian Armstrong will push BCH and shit on BTC subtly every chance he gets, bitcoin.com wallet is the most popular mobile wallet and it literally shits on BTC, propaganda/censorship effects are fading, Purse just added BCH meaning that normies can use it to get 20% discounts on amazon, Koreans love BCH and they seem to matter at least as much as Americans and significantly more than eurofags, miners are looking for ways to destroy BTC in the next few years otherwise their profits will crumble, LN is proving more and more of a failure every single day, Wright will patent-troll startups into moving into BCH, tipping on github is now possible with bch, smart contracts are coming in November, stress tests are a massive success, charities are popularizing BCH in struggling countries (Venezuela today, others will join in if trouble arises), Free Society project is progressing well, Circle is adding BCH next few weeks, Ayre who became a billionaire from gambling is going to create BCH-only online casinos

I can guess her religion.

shes jewish isn't she?

Like clockwork lmao

So much kek

I have trouble believing women are capable of human emotions

I don't know. In a way, I think cheap/frugal people are weak and pathetic when they are always haggling for the best deals despite that they can easily afford the full price (my dad is like that but we are poor). In another way, cheap/frugal people seem wise if their goal is to reach financial independence early.
So I suppose if you are temporarily frugal to save money for something it's fine but if you are always frugal for the sake of it, you look pathetic. What's the point of hording money if you don't enjoy it now and again? Move to a cheaper country and get a job that pays enough to survive then.

you know it to be true nigger

No. christian orthodox/atheist. But she has many jewish friends and loves that culture. She'd always get super upset when I 'd tell her stupid jewish jokes that I read on Jow Forums.

Not sure if there's something contagious that she caught from them. Maybe /biz doctors can help clear that out too.

I agree with you. It's absolutely OK to not over-spend if you cannot afford it, you are being financially responsible that way.
It's also OK if you are saving towards goals. She had none of that...

just the massive amount of jewish brainwashing in american culture. its actually pretty normal despite being very fucked up.

Btw in case you are wondering if you can actually take human ashes in your carry-on on the plane.

Yes you can, as long as you have a death certificate with you. I do not know how the airport security reacted as I took an earlier flight back home.

Your "gf" seems a bit extreme but I wish I could find an Asian or Indian girl like this. We could apply frugality as a fun hobby and use the savings for vacations.

You are wrong. You can ask any girl to take it easy with going out and date nights for 2-3 months so you can both save for a trip. I suppose most would understand.

With a girl like this, that would happen is that you 'd end up paying for almost all of the trip. Or you'd end up visiting let's say Japan and she'd make you eat at mcdonalds! (mcdonalds in japan are really nice btw but you get my point)

difference between being cheap and not paying for shit that people give you

If she was being frugally for the sake of it then yeah, she was being retarded. You did well in breaking up with her, not for that reason though but rather for her shitty attitude regarding her brother. Alexander the Great spent a fortune on his best friend's funeral. Yeah, he had a lot of available wealth acquired during his campaign but he still didn't hesitate. He probably even needed his wealth more than your gf considering the campaign wasn't over. If a woman doesn't demonstrate enough love and consideration for her family, she should go fuck herself.

>she'd make you
letting anyone make you do anything. jesus user, have some self respect.

Being a cheap fuck and living below your means is literally how you get rich without relying on moonshots and muh hard work.

Just make sure you don't compromise your quality of life to the point where you live like a homeless person.

The disrespect there is unbelievable. I know he’s dead and doesn’t care but holy fuck disrespect for your family like that is ASTOUNDING. You made the right call. I would’ve left her as soon as she said that shit. Yikes.

That's just beyond being cheap. Are you sure she's not a jew?

>atheist
Oh... so she's a convert to Judaism Light?

>bro doesnt value his own life enough to keep living
>cuck OP expects gf to assign any value at all to it
Make like her little bro and kys.

Well, he is dead, and doesn't care. But the truly frugal thing to do if you cared about dead people's feelings would be to hand-make a casket yourself; it would show even more respect, and at a fraction of the cost of a mortician's sale prices.

>Indian
>wanting to fuck literal parasites
Off yourself

Christian orthodox and atheist are polar opposites. Is this what she tells you as a cover?

Been there done that got pin worm

>might stem from trauma or whatever

I think there's a nugget of truth to this. I think people who are frugal either grew up extremely poor, so they experienced the trauma of poverty and continue to act accordingly as an adult. Or, they had/ continue to have issues with energy/motivation/depression. I'm in the latter category, the reason I'm frugal is because I do not have any energy left over after a 40 hr work week, I wish I did and I've tried lots of shit to give myself more pep but it's worthless. So I'm frugal so I can save like a motherfucker and retire early at age 40. And then maybe I can at least live a sort of a half-life for the remainder of my years instead of giving my all to the corporate machine like I do now.

kek
Well done, OP.

You are right. Thank you for writing this. The reason I broke up wasn't the funeral - it was the realization that I was with a person that would always be forever dependent on me even in the case of her circumstances being way more favorable than mine. There have been million examples of the "complaining about the salad" example that you gave. (When I was buying food she would indulge herself, when she was buying she would get an appetizer only etc, anyway doesn't matter now)

I just wanted to thank you for your reply, and ask you how come you are not seeking help. Being aware of a problem and not taking steps to fix it has always confused me.

There's a difference between being frugal and being a cheapskate. Looks like she was the latter.

Literally as based as it can get

Well, to be honest, if I die, I don't care what happens to me. I don't see anything wrong with what she did. These people will try and sell you anything, they should be the ones ashamed of profiting on someones death.

Pretty much this combined with making as much as you possibly can. You cant save your way to millions but massive saving + massive earning will get you there pretty fast.

>I think that being cheap, cheap and frugal, is a psychological disease and might stem from trauma or whatever.

The problem isn't that she's frugal or any trauma she might have experienced. It's her self-centered personality. The saying, "Bread eaten is soon forgotten," applies to people like her. She doesn't want to spend money on other people but expects other people to spend money on her. She's the type of person who has no gratitude no matter how much you help/support her. The behavior of these people is very consistent. There may be times when they appear help other people, but it's only because they expect something equal or greater in return. You were right to ditch her.

Heck I wish I could find a girl like yours OP.
Every girl I've come across is an uncontrollable spending machine. Have to buy tons of makeup, new clothes every month, can't eat out at shitty places like McDonalds or face a cold shoulder later that night, buy stuff they want just because they saw on social media that their friends also have it (i.e. the newest fad)...

I can't even believe such a thing as a frugal girl exists.

This is true, but a person who treats their family member like that should raise a huge red flag to any reasonable person.

>But she has many jewish friends and loves that culture
It's in the genes

meh if i died and the mrs did the cheapest funeral as possible i would be proud of her, i dont want anyone wasting money on my dead corpse but then again we are not rich or poor we save money where we can

Pardon me, but who the fuck pays a 28-year old 130K?!

Robotics startup in SF (also that amount is before taxes are paid). Cost of living here is insane though, $2800 per month for a studio...


Anyway. Here's another story of the UK funeral trip. So around 3 hours before my flight back, I asked her if she needed me to stay more with her. She said yes. So I told her that since this trip was unexpected and I already had a return ticket that I would loose (I paid for my flights), I asked her if would be able to help me with buying the new return ticket back.

She first said OK. Then 10 minutes later she said she's feeling better and I should hurry up and catch my flight and that it's ok and she can be there on her own.

Then, while I was at the terminal waiting, she asked me if I could buy her a ticket to see a comedian that night because for some reason her us credit card would not go through.

That's taking and never giving back guys... And it would be annoying but understandable if it was a "I was taught men should pay". The fact that she cheaped her brother's funeral (and her dad was furious about that), makes it deeper for me. Almost sociopathic, I don't really know how to describe it.

I am honestly wondering if there is literature about that being something that therapy can treat.

Who knows my man?
Post her tits?

That's not being frugal OP. Frugal means that you don't spend much money, but instead spend wisely. Your girlfriend is just extremely parsimonious/miserly.

uhh, mind if i get her number?

I can stinge her back to where she feels the way you do now. It'll be like your ultimate revenge. We'll end up living out of an abandoned van on the island in the middle of the bay bridge, each refusing to spend our own money. i'll get her to get me a job at the same company (30 y.o. mech engineer) then I'll do the same work(or better, cause, yknow) for less money to make sure she never gets a raise

you did the right thing user. where there's smoke there's fire and you won't be the one getting burned.

have you ever talked to her about it though?
like seriously tell her about it and how it's somewhat inappropriate behavior, borderline morally wrong, etc.
sometimes, they don't realize it themselves
you don't have to ditch a person when you can try changing them (supposing you loved her)
people nowadays have this mentality to just throw relationships out without trying to fix them first.

My biggest question is how the fuck is a woman worth 130k a year at any job? I cannot ever imagine a woman being worth more than 30k honestly

THIS OP!
dont be a child, communicate first like a grown up

Hi friend I’m down in the Silicon Valley. Yeah its pretty fucking retarded, you’ll come across someone /welloff/ who acts like a stingy little bitch over literal fucking pennies like jesus fuck get your head out of your ass. I have a couple of them in my family and its unbearable sometimes

Is nobody seriously gonna call this out as a larp?

OP has obviously fabricated this entire scenario. There is no gf and no suicidal brother. I can't believe you people are falling for this.

Op didnt mention enough redeeming qualities for this kind of effort to seem worthwhile.

Just fucking ditch her. I used to be a cheap buzzkill myself among friends and gf, but only because I actually didnt have the money. Earning 130k and being this much of a jewish cunt is straight pathological. Such worship of money is telling of someone completely disconnected from emotional and spiritual ties. Someone who'll either fix their ways or wake up one day when they're 40 and realize they're alone and empty. Good riddance, op

>Op didnt mention enough redeeming qualities for this kind of effort to seem worthwhile.

But then he didn't say there weren't any
if there weren't though, ditch her OP

also, buy link

She's currently in treasure island. If you hang out there you might get to meet her.

I tried... many times. Though most times I brought these things up I was emotionally charged, so I would come off as annoyed rather than concerned.
I did not criticize about the funeral at all, as that is her own family business. I did criticize her about not being willing to help me with the return flight and she claimed she didn't realize what I meant.

Anyway, it didn't really go anywhere. Everytime she swore she would change, but her "change" was fully superficial. For example, I used to prepare or pay for like 9/10 dinners. I told her that since I 'm paying rent etc, I would be happy if she got us more times dinner or drinks. What ended up happening, is that she would stay later at work, as they have free dinner after 7pm. She would then bring me home her half-eaten dinner from work (she's a vegetarian so... meh).

So... let's have dinner together got replaced by let's eat the office's salad leftovers... except for when I would take the initiative to make or order something. Around this time, I started going out more with my friends (as she'd stay late at work, so why not?). Which pissed her off because now "I prefer my friends over her".


I do not regret breaking up with her. Now here's the question... She left all of her stuff (except clothes) at my place. I don't want her to use my studio as a storage/locker room. Which I bet she will. What do?


To all the people who don't believe me. I 'm happy to read that my life sounds like something out of people's imagination :p

Top kek

Honestly it's great to have a frugal wife, the opposite is far worse

Burning the body and scattering the ashes into the wind is a good kind of burial. I don't like Christian burial, I believe in reincarnation: that means when a human dies, his body is now just a cadaver, an empty shell.

Some people are just greedy, it's who they are and there's no way around it.
Some people just make it peace with it, but if it's bothering you then you did the right thing.
If it bothers you right now, it will drive you nuts later. You will be constantly angry and you will start picking fights.
I broke up with my ex because I could not accept some of her "quirks", I turned into a complete insufferable ass and all of my relationships were crumbling because I was constantly angry and started lashing and my friends/family

HOLY FUCK SHE STOLE FROM ME. that fucking cunt... She only took like $40-60. I had a jar where I would put $1s, bundled in groups of 10, which I 'd use for tipping at bars, and before she moved out she fucking emptied it... granted she only took ones.. But holy fuck. What a fucking cunt. I guess noone can blame me now if some of her stuff goes missing or ends up slightly damaged. Fuck.

Did she even know she just took $1s, or did she think she took way more? Holy fuck I 'm pissed right now.

She's honestly gross I'm glad you broke up with her.

Why did her brother kill himself? Did she not care at all? Kind of nauseating.

You larping too hard man. Lol. Is the OP image how rich people get off on poors?

OCD or schizoid. most likely some form of ocd

Tell her to come get her shit or you're going to get rid of it.

did you not read ops posts? shes the kind of girl that would expect op to spend a lot but never spend herself.

No I 'm just pissed... I just don't know if she took it now that she left, or if she took from it before and I just never noticed. I 'm not going to touch her stuff yet, but I 'll pressure her to come and pick up her stuff asap so that I 'm done with all this shit and I can move on once and for good.

Dude... you 're on to something. This article claims it's "OCPD"

everydayhealth.com/news/are-you-sensibly-frugal-mentally-ill/

People with OCPD might be so frugal that they'd go to a food pantry or skimp on essentials, even if they had enough money for all they need.

“There is a pervasive miserliness," she says. "These people have a hard time being generous with affection or with time." The person might also fear getting rid of certain things because of beliefs about wastefulness.

Further, people who have OCPD are unlikely to see their frugality as a problem. If they come into treatment, it’s usually because someone close to them has insisted on it or because they want help from a professional to achieve their perfectionist goals, according to Hudak.

frugality is the only way we can combat boomers. take back your financial freedom. stop renting, grow your own food. starve them to death

Ain’t nobody gonna read that shit.

Just sell her stuff or keep it for yoursef if she doesn't come get her shit within a month. Make an ultimatum, don't get used as a "locker room" as you said

It's her problem, not yours

Annon, I make 10k / month. I never pay for stuff and keep only 1k for living expenses and 1k for gold diggers I use for entertainment.


Strong independent woman's usually take me out, pay for things and wanna have fun with me. But, they understand that 80% of my income goes into stocks and crypto and one day it'll be the other way around.

like i said, its most likely some form of ocd because of the patterned behaviour and thoughts. its a good thing you dropped her, people with ocd are hard to change.

what if we just put him on a catapault and flung him into the forest?

You can order them online. The ones at the mortuary are the same caskets with a high markup.

Right choice, son. Poor mindsets eventually breed poorness, sooner or later. It is a habit of self-limiting to no end when there is no real reason behind it.

she's only stingy with her own money, she spends his easily

I'm willing to bet she's saving to travel around alone fucking Chads or similar

she's already there lmfao
