OP you have money dan?

I'm assuming here the OP & others who may call people "cheap & low" are in a position of need based on the Question.

Sometimes life doesn't go the way we planned or expected it to go & we are placed in positions of need.
1. Sometimes our needs are simply for survival.
2. Sometimes our needs are simply for the upkeep of a certain standard of living.
3. Sometimes our needs are momentarily based on an opportunity that has presented itself.
4. Sometimes we don't have a need but just want something out of greed.

The true question here should be if our need is justifiable enough to warrant assistance from the perspective of the person you are asking.
Assistance may come in the form of:
1. Money (inadvertently time)
2. Physical Labour (inadvertently time)
3. Advice (inadvertently time)

I assume the OP's reference to "cheap & low" has to do with Money in most instances.

That should clarify the question & some related definitions I hope:

To answer the question directly:
A person can be considered "cheap or low" based on the way they view the importance of your current "need".
If your need is justified & they are in a position to help but don't then it stands to reason that they just don't value your current need more than they value their own current needs.

The most we can do is ask & assume empathy when rejected to decipher their reasoning.
It does not always mean that they are selfish & please be reminded that being selfish is a necessary survival attribute, so it is not wrong.

Dude, you really think too much.
But srsly, being cheap/stingy/a louse is solely about wanting to enjoy certain certain things without having to give up anything to do so & hoping to get some poor sucker to make that happen. Basically its selfishness taken to extreme levels by persons that can afford to spend money time or effort on what they want but just too greedy and selfish to be willing to put out something they feel they wont get back.

A true louse will only give you $1.00 if he 100% sure he would get back $3.00

[pugboy]

it have very different definitions of stingy/cheap though
so people are just plain economizers and try to save every plastic bag and not spend a cent,
these are the people who actually not ashamed to be cheap and will let you know

others are just plain money hounds and want everybody to pay for them, they close to bandits.
