Living a frugal life is lowkey. People don't realize that when they save and live their lives the way how much they're earning, that's how life goes for the simple folks.
You don't need to be showy to the other people just to impress them. Live within your means and that's what's going to make you happy in life. No need to impress the people that surrounds you because the important thing you need to remember is to make yourself comfortable, happy and contented.
Our success in life is how to manage our finances well, live a frugal life we must do before we achieve financial freedom. But the sad fact is that
many people lead the wrong lifestyle, they want to show others that their life is happy by showing them the luxury items that they sometimes
buy on an installment basis. Moreover, with the existence of social media as a place to show off to impress others, such a life will only be stressful
in the end and will not provide real happiness. It's true why we waste our money just to impress other people, if in the end we will experience
financial problems due to installments of luxury goods. It's better to live frugally and focus on investing in potential assets, so that our future is
bright and in old age we can live happily.
Wrong mindset that most of the time lead them to be broke instead of having good savings in their banks, I see your point and I can agree to that, way back I'm also one of those people who wanted to show that I can buy things that not all can be bought, until I got my own family and realized those wrong ways of life. Now, I'm trying to save for my children's future and I also do some investment and passive business that will allow me to generate extra income aside from my salary.
There is always time to change yourself and realize that the important thing is you are able to provide the needs and not the luxuries. There's time for leisure, but for now, better to save and invest in a much better future ahead.
