Many people just throw away things instead of getting them repaired, I try to get the most from my possessions before I throw them - have them repaired and use till they are no longer usable.

Yes, I do. It's my attitude on things. Maybe it's because of my on-going curiousity since I've been a child. I would give up whenever it had a serious damage that it could not be repaired anymore.

You should have become an engineer then, it would suit your talent and nature.

Dear dbhattji, I have the habit of keeping the materials which are to be repaird. I never use to repair them but keep them in proper place. In case anything goes wrong I will immediately I will purchase replacement. Last month my water pump motor burned out. I got both motor and pump replaced. I am just keeping the old motor and pump for repairing. I do not know when I will repair. I need a mood to repair them till such time they will remain in out of order condition. In case of electronic articles I just throw or give to somebody because I do not believe in repairing radio, tape recorder and not TV.

yes, I agree, the electronic goods are now becoming cheaper and not worth the money or trouble to repair them, even their spare parts are not useful.
