What are the opposite words for economy?
When it comes to finding antonyms for the word "economy," we need to think of terms that contrast with frugality, prudence, and efficiency. One possible antonym might be "extravagance,' which connotes wastefulness, excess, and luxury. Another antonym could be "lavishness," implying a lack of constraint or reserve when it comes to spending money, time, or resources. A third possible antonym is "profligacy," which refers to recklessness, squandering, and decadence. In contrast to the virtues of thrift and discretion that characterizes the economy, these antonyms evoke images of indulgence, opulence, and ostentation.
