I don't see it as vanity, I see it as a matter of willpower.

When I was a kid, my mum looked after all the financial matters in the household. The only thing my dad got to spend his money on was his beer and the occaissional saturday investment of the equine kind. My mum would never go into the red. She had a simple rule,"If the money isn't there, you can't spend it." My sister and I didn't miss out on anything, but we learnt the value of money.
I know Lettie has the same values as I, with regards to money, which was handed down to her by her dad.
