Very inspiring thread.
I feel kind of less worthy because it was just how I Was raised - I know no different. Though I feel very blessed. But I really admire people who have the strength to turn frugal coming from a non-frugal background. Or to dig their way out of large debt or harsh financial circumstances.
My parents of course were frugal coming from a very poor background. They carried on their frugal ways even when they "made it" and taught me their ways as well. OVerall I feel most of the time I feel like I have twice the lifestyle of those around me on 1/2 the money so I can't say why I would do any different.
