Syn. -- Economy, Frugality, Parsimony.
Economy avoids all waste and extravagance, and applies money
to the best advantage; frugality cuts off indulgences, and
proceeds on a system of saving. The latter conveys the idea of not
using or spending superfluously, and is opposed to lavishness
or profusion. Frugality is usually applied to matters
of consumption, and commonly points to simplicity of manners;
parsimony is frugality carried to an extreme, involving
meanness of spirit, and a sordid mode of living. Economy is a
virtue, and parsimony a vice.
I have no other notion of economy than that it
is the parent to liberty and ease.
Swift.
The father was more given to frugality, and the
son to riotousness [luxuriousness].
