But, I have enough. Would I have even recognized the artistry?
It seems we all have different frugal advantages. I am blessed with an amazing thrift store, but I have high housing, utility, and grocery prices. (another sigh)
When I lived in South Bend, we had low housing and grocery costs, but the 2ndhand market wasn't as good. It's a trade-off.
And, can you imagine the cost-of-living in MANHATTAN!
That is interesting. A few years ago, my husband's uncle (an artist in the New England area) came across a framed picture. The person was selling it for $10. His uncle informed them that it was a "small Rembrandt" and that they might want to have it looked at. It turned out to be worth a couple hundred thousand dollars. Who knew? Obviously not that fellow!
