A penny saved is a penny earned

anyone remember the idiomatic expression in Spanish:
A penny earned is a penny saved?

The actual quotation from Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanac is:
A penny saved is a penny dear.

It is often misquoted as:
A penny saved is a penny earned.

You can find the Spanish equivalent here, in our Idioms section (which also contains proverbs and sayings).
