Do you ever feel like you are the only person who is frugal? I've felt like an outsider looking in for many, many years. I have said before that I'm not naturally frugal. However, I found that if I was frugal, then I could stay at home with my babies. Although my babies are now 11 and 13, I can't imagine going to work outside the home full time. I don't condemn anyone if these choose to do that, but I know myself too well to think it would work out well for me.
Many years ago while browsing the internet on a very ssssslllllloooooowwww dial up connection, I found my home away from home. A place where I fit in. A place where people knew my name...wait wasn't that the show Cheers? Anyway, it was a place where people understood where I was coming from and had the same interests. It's a website and forum called Frugal-Families.
Thankfully I have a few friends now in real life that are in the same situation as I am. I have found that the more frugal I am, the more natural it becomes. Today, my frugality "job" helps us pay our piles of student loans back a little bit easier.
Do you want to connect with like minded people? Are you trying to figure out what the frugal life is all about? I suggest that you check out the website Frugal-Families!
This works for me! Check out other WFMW tips!
P.S. I am not paid at all for advertising for Frugal-Families. Connecting with other people is important so I thought I'd share this fabulous forum!
