Definitely agreed. "Learn to think cheap." has been important for us. "Money saving tips" that include Areon chairs and a several thousand dollar expresso machine are retarded. My co-founder wanted an external monitor for his laptop ... so he picked one up a 19" CRT for 5€ on eBay. We like expresso, so we have a 15€ coffee grinder and a 25€ mocha pot that goes on the stove. This isn't rocket science.
