Convenience vs Dollars

Question of the day will be "which one do you choose? convenience or
financially efficient?"

Just like the trade off between computer security and convenience,
there is always cost for convenience. That's why Air Asia charge you
extra money if you book through their website.

For a multi millionaire, it is a rethorical question. Convenience
never goes away, if it does, because the beholder does actually choose
to not having it. For a multi tenniers like me, it is a question of
life philosophy.

My recent examples will be my shopping preferences. Most often, I
chose to go to a store where you can get everything in one place, even
though the price will be doubled if you dont mind to go to a
traditional market and bargain. For some poeple who are financially
idealistic, finding a place where you can get much cheaper price and
bargain is a must-do no matter what. But for people who are not so
sensible about shopping, getting what you need to have is number one
priority and then you become less sensible about the money.

So, if one asks me, am I sorry if I found out that I can actually get
the same thing a lot cheaper somewhere else with extra effort? I would
say no, I'm not sorry because I know I've made my choices. However,
there are times where I would choose to be financially idealistic and
when that time comes, you will find me count everything to the
smallest amount.
