'The Millionaire Next Door' changed the way I think about my money - Business Insider

It's a simple concept, but before reading this book, I always looked at frugality as something people did when they didn't have a lot of money. This was so eye-opening for me. It was what sparked me to convert to frugality for good. This literally changed my life. didn't get there overnightThey ingrain good choices into their lifestyle. They don't splurge on non-essentials from time to time. They don't use retail shopping as therapy.

Instead, they incorporate small daily habits that make all the difference.

Clipping coupons is not a practice of people in need of money— it'sThis was mind-blowing for me. Up until this moment, I had been embarrassed at the thought of giving a cashier coupons, in fear of the person behind me in line judging me. Perhaps they might think I couldn't afford the extra 25 cents I was aiming to save.

This part of the book transformed my mindset more than anything. Imagine, a normal person, making an average salary, ashamed to save money but one of the most wealthy, unashamed! This book was such an eye-opener. It changed my perspective on how I should manage my money. It took away the shame of frugality and saving money. The words in the book told more than a story about these millionaires. It described how these millionaires got to this status and drew me a roadmap of how I could get there, too.

Oh absolutely! It doesn't matter what your income is, you should always save. Thanks for sharing!
