Yes, my friend said something like that. Her father told her if she wants to do something she should do it right or leave it be, lol.

My girlfriend is rather practical with this kind of stuff.

She works as a marketeer and if she needs some coding, she reads stuff about it online and does it herself if it's something you can learn in under a day.

Also, she was rather poor as child, so she likes to keep things she paid for longer than the manufacturers want her too.
