In defense of frugality
Frugality isn’t very sexy. I’ll admit that.
For most people, the concept of thrift probably conjures images of coupon clipping, stock photos of piggy banks, and Benjamin Franklin — none of which are terribly glamorous.
Frugality, is, however, in line with the concept of getting rich slowly. We’ve learned that building wealth has much to do with living below your means. You have to increase your income, yes. But in the process of looking for ways to earn more — whether it’s negotiating, switching careers, picking up side gigs — frugality is your friend.
