UDUJ:
Though I don't like the Op, I will try to answer this as detailed as possible.


Let's take this in reverse order:

The "stingy" are those who could spend, but choose not to. They value money more than comfort or approval from others. This could be rooted in a fear of poverty, a lack of self esteem, selfishness or resentment.

The "cheap" are those who do not assess the value of what is spent vs. the benefit derived. They sometimes spend on items that are low in cost, but have no intrinsic value, simply because the item is cheap. They take pleasure from the immediate gratification of owning the item, without considering whether it has quality or enduring utility, or whether the amount spent could yield more if allocated differently.

The "economical" are those who assess the benefit of spending vs the cost. They seek to obtain the best value for, or highest benefit of, their spending. They seek enduring utility or intrinsic value in exchange for their spending.

The "generous" will spend a portion of assets not needed to sustain their needs. They may even sacrifice a measure of their own comfort to relieve a perceived need in others. Sometimes this is an act seeking approval. Sometimes this is a demonstration of power. Sometimes this is performed out of a sense of obligation. Sometimes this is an act of true philanthropy, performed simply because it is possible.

TheUpsetGirl1:
what's your definition of stingy??

to me a stingy person is the one who you spend on, help in time of his/her needs, but doesn't spend on you and doesn't help in your time of needs.

like;
I spend on a guy, help him when he needs help but he doesn't spend on me, give excuses and refuse to help me in times when I'm in need of help.

what's your own definition of stingy? because I've noticed that the word have different meanings to many people.

Shugarlord213:
I don’t care about the word stingy you girls problem should be looking for a job and stop claiming feminism

The real feminists aren’t online. All nairaland girls are h.oes

Enough said

MrBrownJay1:
a stingy person is someone who is careful with money, who knows the value of money, and most importantly, how hard it is to make money (thus they dont squander it on BS).

sadly, the majority of people in Nigeria who call others stingy have absolutely no money to call their own, and are usually the one begging that same "stingy" person for handouts etc (or expect him to spend frivolously on them).
