Publisher's summary

It is important to be a frugal spender. By watching what you spend and trying to make your money last as long as possible you can use it for other things like savings and retirement. Frugal spenders also usually research their purchases in depth beforehand and make better purchases overall. Being a frugal spender doesn't mean you are cheap. Spending frugally means that you know the value of a dollar and want to make sure that you don't overspend on any of your purchases. Frugal spenders typically are good with their money and have financial stability that others around them don't often have.

Keeping up with Jones'

Where does How to Be Frugal rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Top 10!!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I did want to listen to it all in one setting, I was very impressed by the advice in this book. I was a victim of keeping up with the Jones' and in doing so I was spending foolishly. I found myself in debt and unhappy. I was strategizing over the last few months how bounce back, and this book has been added to my collection. Solid SMART yet simple advice to live debt free. Wish i knew these steps years ago!!

Any additional comments?

LOVED IT!!!
