别适应穷日子 Don’t Get Used to The Poor Way

In Chinese tradition, it is a great merit for people to be frugal. Our parents have gone through the hard time when our country’s economy is not good. So they get used to be economical about everything. When the situation gets better, they still live in the old way. To improve lifestyle, they can think about giving up living the old style.
在中国的传统中，节俭是一种伟大的美德。我们的父母经历了国家经济状况低迷的困难时期。所以他们养成了节俭的习惯。形势有所好转后，他们仍然过着同样的日子。为了改善生活方式，他们可以考虑放弃旧的生活方式。

When I was very small, my parents educated me all the time that I should not waste money, so I always compared the prices before I made bargain, in the purpose of paying in the lowest price. But as I grow up and make money by my own, I start to consider about whether being frugal is best for me. For example, I want to buy a brand wa【爱英语 爱生活 爱上英语翻译学习网（enfanyi.com）分享时尚英语资讯】tch, which is very suitable for me, while there is another watch that is much cheaper and I don’t like it. My parents must take the latter one. But I decide to buy the one I like, because it worths. 
在我很小的时候我父母就教育我不要浪费钱，所以，为了能以最低价格购买到商品，我总是会在购买前对比价格。但是我长大后开始自己赚钱了，就开始考虑节俭对我来说是否是最好的。例如，我想买一块非常适合我的品牌手表，但是另一块手表却便宜很多，可是我不喜欢。我父母肯定会选择后者。但是我会买我喜欢的那个，因为值得。

The old generation gets used to the poor days and they don’t realize the necessity of chasing a better lifestyle. When life gets better, it is reasonable to spend money to enjoy a comfortable life.
老一代习惯了贫穷的生活，他们没有意识到追求更好生活方式的必要性。当生活有所好转，花钱享受舒适的生活是合理的。
