Re: Find out more about Tuan Lam here (national post article)
[ QUOTE ]
-Article ends with him shopping around and falling in love with a 7k rolex watch, but then later deciding against it because it was too much.
Final sentence of the article: "Maybe after all these years, Tuan Lam hasn't changed so much. Every single dollar still matters."

This is a very Buddhist view. Assuming he is Buddhist himself, it's not so much that he's trying to save a buck, but instead rationalizing that buying an expensive watch might bring him a few moments of joy, but does not add to his hapiness in life and that he can use that money to help others, which will bring him more hapiness.
