Since it’s expensive to be poor, what are some products/brands that are durable and last a long time, even if they are more expensive?

How do you get a closer shave with DE safety razors? I bought one, but it just doesnt work well... With the venus razor i lather up, shave an area with the grain and then while its still wet against the grain, and move on to the next area. With the safety razor i have to relather before going against the grain, and tbh the shave is not as close. I end up shaving again and again and again. The venus cartridges i can press deep into my skin with no problem, the DE safety razor i have to tread much more lightly. To get the same closeness of shave i find myself shaving 5+ times against the grain, and even then the hairs are still poking out a bit. I try holding it at different angles, i try moving it in different ways, but it still leaves hairs and visible shadow... Is this just a skill issue?
