How did you get interested in saving money? I learned to save money by watching my parents. (I I still remember saving my change as a kid so I could “shop” for books at yard sales.) When they got married, they bought a duplex so that the rent money from the tenant in the upstairs apartment would pay the mortgage.

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). How did you get interested in saving money? What’s the “why” behind your money-saving efforts? Maybe four years?
