   Is being thrify considered a mental disorder these days?  I'm especially   
   concerned because her thriftiness disorder clouds her judgment and she   
   will fail to see the benefits of $500/hour psychotherapy and consider it   
   to be a waste of money and she will continue to live in untreated denial.   
      
   Now, if she were selling the apple seeds on e-Bay to pay for $500/hour   
   psychotherapy sessions, then her behavior would be normal and reasonable.
