Yes or no? Are their times when being frugal backfires? Or vice versa?

I'm extremely cheap. I do this to save money for important things. I will be purchasing a house within a year and I'm 30

Nah. Im the guy that prefers quality or quantity when it comes to material items. I'd rather buy one thing that's $100 and have it last year's than buy a cheaper version that's $25 but only lasts a few weeks or months. (Like good quality headphones)


But at the same time... I understand how important money is and I always try to save and keep reminding myself what is needed and what is just desired


But I'm only 23 so I still got a lot of learning to do :yeshrug:

Yeah I'm cheap, I have nice thing but I buy them on sale.

The only time being cheap backfires on you, is when you try to be cut coners with fixing thing. Finding a cheap plumber, mechanic, contractor, contractor, electrician, that type of stuff always backfires on you. But also you do not want to over pay, because you should vet people also.

Frugal as hell. Nothing wrong to me with using a coupon discount code promo code or whatever. I try to limit my intake on fast food as well. So I don't think I'm to bad. I could see if someone is saving and using the ketchup packages out of a restaurant or using the soap from motels/hotels as their only source of hygiene.
