I was having a conversation today with another person that brought up a topic about being resourceful. The example came from knowing a person who struggled with money and that he won’t drink water that comes from the tap. Instead, it must be bottled water that he purchases.
He then gave a confused look over that and mentions how if the person was that paranoid that he should simply boil it first. That then led to a comment on how the person must not of been a very resourceful person. More often than enough you can usually find what you need with the things you already have around you as oppose to just buying new things.
