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.
在中國的傳統中，節儉是一種偉大的美德。我們的父母經歷了國家經濟狀況低迷的困難時期。所以他們養成了節儉的習慣。形勢有所好轉後，他們仍然過着同樣的日子。爲了改善生活方式，他們可以考慮放棄舊的生活方式。

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 watch, 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. 
在我很小的時候我父母就教育我不要浪費錢，所以，爲了能以最低價格購買到商品，我總是會在購買前對比價格。但是我長大後開始自己賺錢了，就開始考慮節儉對我來說是否是最好的。例如，我想買一塊非常適合我的品牌手錶，但是另一塊手錶卻便宜很多，可是我不喜歡。我父母肯定會選擇後者。但是我會買我喜歡的那個，因爲值得。

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.
老一代習慣了貧窮的生活，他們沒有意識到追求更好生活方式的必要性。當生活有所好轉，花錢享受舒適的生活是合理的。
