Default Re: How many americans are frugal

ima, that's ok... we'll likely never be able to save 25% either... hawaii is sooo high COL that an average person here will generally pay at least 50% of their salary to housing... a 1BR apartment is 1K+/mo and the median cost of a single family home where our parents live is 660K-700K and rising...
tina, you are very lucky... i wish i had started when i was 17... and the people on these boards are great role models...
