Having been poor for most of my life, it's what you didn't pay for that keeps you afloat generally. If it blows up, I will move to the Lenovo M70s I found without a hard disk or RAM the other week. I put an 8 gig stick in it and it works so will get some more off ebay.
I have a fairly high end M4 Macbook Pro but prefer to live as if I don't most of the time. All of us can take a big fall in life so it makes sense to keep one foot in both worlds.
Yeah my partner laughs at how cheap I am a lot of the time. But also I just now like making stuff too. It is very rewarding and it's always a useful skill. Maybe AI will be able to repair everything but sometimes it's about logistics
