Better quality material means double the price, not 10x. Grazy to buy expensive clothes, except good leather items.

"In a 2011 paper in The Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Michael Nahm, the parapsychologist who first identified terminal lucidity, and the University of Virginia psychiatrist Bruce Greyson noted what they saw as a d eeper mystery revealed by episodes of lucidity in dementia: The phenomenon seemed to show that the mind could continue to function even when the brain was significantly impaired. This was hard to reconcile, they observed, with the mainstream scientific belief in reductive materialism, which holds that consciousness originates from biophysical processes in the brain. “If you believe that everything we see and hear and feel and think and decide comes solely from the brain,” Greyson told me recently, “then you have to propose a mechanism for how the brain does that when it’s been deteriorating for years and years and not been able to do those things. How does it suddenly recover those abilities?” It was because of this that Nahm and Greyson thought lucid episodes could teach scientists about the mind-body relationship and the nature of consciousness itself."

"Winterkill" by C.J. Box one of his early works. Great read if you like hunting, horses, and the culture of the mountain west in winter.
