A guy at my office never goes out to eat or to a movie. We are talking years. He's constantly calling his financial adviser from work and has no interests that I know of other than watching sports on TV.

I believe in relative frugality.

Frugal to some means ramen noodles and beans and clipping coupons. Frugal to me means buying high end steaks from the butcher and cooking them myself for a fourth of what it costs at a restaurant.

Frugal to some means driving a beater that barely gets you to work. I drive a 2007 Volvo sedan that gets 32 MPG and has 70k miles on it. I'll drive it until it has 200k.
