When you turn on the tap to wash some dishes or have a lovely long morning shower, you should think twice about the volume of unnecessary water you are consuming.
Have you ever noticed that it’s often much easier to spend money overseas than at home? For instance, I had no problems spending 500 rubles for lunch in Russia (about $20 at that time), but I think twice about spending the same amount in the US. Even the Euro – which lately has been stronger than the dollar – is easier to part with than my own home currency.
What makes foreign money different? Or, rather, why do I react differently to spending other currencies?
