This is a good read. Below is my 2 cents.

“Who is cheap?” matters more than what is.

Those who spread rumors/ gossips (or) judge others by their private lifestyle and their personal habits (or) those conspiring against someone with harmful consequences are cheap people.

Buying a cheap product or being frugal does NOT make the person cheap. It is just an activity and nothing to do with the person’s character, they may have their own reasons for being economical.

Cheap Product Vs Cheap Person:

A product is cheap because it is inexpensive due to inferior quality.

A person is cheap because he/she got a soul of inferior quality.

Some despite carrying latest iPhone, and Gucci bags, but would pass by homeless on streets criticizing the poor homeless person for being so and do not care to feed them or drop a penny, that is cheap. Not feeding the hungry despite their abundance, that is cheap.

The fact is there are many ‘cheap’ people in expensive suits and living large. The outlook does not define what is inside.
