Having a lack of money usually means you have a lack of time as well. Buying (say) boots because your only other pair of boots has broken does not afford you the same oppertiunity to be picky. Perhaps you will need boots before a certain time, say to go to work. You probably don&#x27;t have the disposable income to buy boots before the point where you need them. This means you don&#x27;t have the same freedom to research this long lasting reasonably priced stuff even if you do happen to have the budget to reach that minimum price you are talking about.
