saving money is just as valuable as earning it
お金を節約することは、それを稼ぐことと同じくらい価値がある (okane o setsuyaku suru koto wa, sore o kasegu koto to onaji kurai kachi ga aru)
"My grandfather always said, 'a penny saved is a penny earned.'"
"私の祖父はいつも言っていました、'節約した1セントは稼いだ1セントだ。'" (watashi no sofu wa itsumo itte imashita, 'setsuyaku shita 1 sento wa kaseida 1 sento da.')
a peaceful time before trouble begins
a fair opportunity to defend oneself or be heard
to enter a new activity slowly and comfortably
to attract all the attention or praise
to work together to solve a problem
to establish a unique place or role for oneself
