Cheap versus making memories

For a couple extra bucks a month, you can get the car of your dreams or you can save those dollars and drive a four-wheeled piece of you-know-what.

For a little more money, you can buy the perfect gift for the person you love most in life, or you can compromise and get something decent that is nothing to get excited about.

For a little more time invested, you can make that project truly inspirational, or you can do the minimum and check it off your "things to do" list.

 We can cut corners and survive. We can invest less money, time, care or thought into something, but while we'll get away with it, we'll never make memories, we'll never do something remarkable.

And that robs us too, not just the recipient.
