| 5 steps to a frugal and rewarding lifestyle Now that the shock of the recession is tempering, it is interesting to read financial articles that were written right before the extremes of the recession started. The March 1, 2008, New York Times article ?Frugality Can Be Acquired, but It Can?t Be Bought? discusses consumerism up to that point. Did you know one of the people that were buying more house than they could afford? Some of those same people were then borrowing even more money against the house to finance more spending. In early 2007 consumerism was at a peak. Today, however, the buzz is that frugality is ?in? and millions of people are looking for financial advice in order to avoid the harsh lessons that out of control spending taught us not long ago.

That is true. It is a big help especially for me to know how to be able to live my life in a frugal way. I choose to live the frugal way for so many reasons. And for me the mere fact that we now living in such a hard financial times would surely make you think of having a frugal lifestyle. Spending less and saving, that is my thing now. |
