    About this ebook

    ‘Hey, look at my new super smart phone.’
    ‘Looks great. How much did you pay for it?’
    ‘Only $750 after discount. Original price is $900, and I also got a year’s worth of music videos for free. Why don’t you also buy one?’
    ‘Sorry, not interested.’
    ‘But you can easily afford one, can’t you?’
    ‘Of course, I can.’
    ‘Then why can’t you buy it? All your friends will envy you.’
    ‘Perhaps, but I have decided to become a minimalist.’
    ‘Minimalist? What’s that? Some fancy name for stinginess?’
    ‘No, it is something better than that.’
    ‘Hah, so what next? Cold showers in the winter?’
