The more things you make from scratch, the less expensive and usually healthier and tastier.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's not what you make, but how you feel about what you make and what you spend.
Personally, I'm not interested in getting more money for what I do; I'm just interested in more money being put into the production.
The older you get and the wealthier you get, the more complicated life becomes. That's why I have as few material assets as possible. Every material thing you have is more hassle.
Things have a way of being richer in the end, a product better made, for the circuitous route we take to include all the elements that are necessary for a job well done.
The more things you own, the more people you need to employ.
The more harder you work, the less you're out spending your money.
The better the ingredients, the more farmers I can buy from, the closer I feel to the food I want to make that represents what I care about as a chef.
What makes the production of my work so expensive? The whole installation thing - the construction, the objects, the technology. It really adds up.
The easier things are to buy, the more we consume.
It's more expensive for me to make my shoes. I don't use animal-based glues or fish-based glues. So that costs me more. And, you know, like anything in life - mass marketing of anything - mass manufacturing of anything costs less.
