The Frugal Girl

DECEMBER 11, 2023

As a teenager, I saved quite a bit of the money I earned babysitting and working in a dining hall. Over time, I have realized that I had somewhat of an unhealthy way of depending on money for a sense of security and control. I liked seeing money accumulate and grow, and that has continued into adulthood!

Dining out, fast food drive-throughs, and Starbucks all have to stop. You’d be amazed at the things people will buy. It’s just easy.

If you’re over 21 and still have trouble qualifying: Even with a full-time income, it can be hard to qualify for a traditional credit card if you lack a credit history. Pay on time and in full every month to avoid interest. But if such spending becomes a habit, it will be costly.

My husband, Alan, and I live in a beautiful area of the northeast that’s full of mountains, lakes, and rivers and is popular with both tourists and second homeowners. We live on the side of a small mountain in a quiet, rural town, but we’re less than 20 miles from a city of about 25,000 people and its shopping and dining opportunities.
