The art or science of using money and resources effectively, or practical economic management.
From Greek 'chreon' (necessity/need) and 'technics' (craft/skill). A rare term combining economics with practical applied skill.
This word captures something modern managers call 'resource optimization,' but it's an ancient concept—understanding how to stretch resources to meet necessity is one of humanity's oldest challenges.
