Stop Wasting Money!: Take Control of Your Finances and Discover 250+ Ways to Save Money!
AU
UK

I'm frugal. My extended family think I'm stingy. My friends label me as a cheapskate. These are negative labels which are designed to spur me to become a spender. Our modern society is geared to consume. Advertisements sell us the dream to make us want stuff. Buy stuff to be happy and live the 'perfect life'. At the end of the day, I'll be laughing. Why? I'll be financially free while they'll still be slaving away working for the man.

They say:
* "Don't be cheap!"
* "You've got no life."
* "You have to enjoy life."
* "You have to spend money to enjoy life."

Little do they know, I actively and deliberately choose where I want to splurge. While I scrimp on what appears to be everything, I spend on the things in life that I enjoy the most: eating good food and travel.

Why waste money on things that doesn't give you any satisfaction?

Why bother living frugally?

Living frugally gives you choices.

By spending less than you earn you will be financially ahead of many individuals and households. The money you save can help pay off a mortgage, other debt or be put into savings and investments.

By spending less you need less to live. You can choose a less-paying less-stressful job. Choose to work less. Work more now, put more into savings to help you retire earlier.

Real Wealth

Money is something we all need and want. We need it to pay for our daily needs to pay for shelter, food and water. We dream of having more of it. It can cause numerous headaches, stress, arguments between partners, families and friends. It has the power to liberate us when we know how to harness it and manage it with respect.

Being rich is having a lot of money, but being wealthy is knowing how to manage money to your own advantage.

eBooks are free at time of posting. Please check price before buying.

        Agreed. Pro tip: Yes, spend money to save money, BUT ONLY spend the money on things which you have to buy anyway. Sometimes it means to buy in bulk and this is where timing is very important.

        Thanks OP for this post :)

  • +13

    I wonder using a BBQ in the park (instead of your kitchen) is one of the ways to stop wasting money.

    • +2

      So is shitting at work… And getting paid to do it.

    • You still require to put $2 in the BBQ in the park! It’s more social then in the kitchen for the price I guess :-P

      • So outdated. It used to be 20c. And they've been removed (the cost) around Sydney and all NSW I believe.

      • -2

        You can save even more by being anti-social:

        Pop a Number 2 on the BBQ.

        Save on buying meat, and no costly wasted water flushing at home either.

      • +2

        Never paid for council BBQ - all have been free.

      • Where is this $2 barbecue? All the paid ones I know of were phased out due to vandalism so you have a real rarity.

      • Here in Tas its free, well at least in most of the North West Area. Great for backpackers, tourists, locals etc…

    After buying way too many 4k and 3d blurays and a 2nd Lg UBK90 player from JB as I got carried away (used the extra 5% code and 5% discounted giftcards)….I think I should read this.

  • 🤔 Mine says its not available for purchase on my device (iphone 8 +) 🙄
    Should I try on my ipad would that work?

    • Just “bought” the book on an iPhone 8+.

  • Stop wasting time reading this book. Finance 101 spend less than you earn. Simple.

  • +4

    Just saved $5,21 from not buying this book… guess that's a start!

  • +3

    Tip: don't buy things that you don't need, even if they're on sale.

    • Genuine tip. Thanks.

  • +2

    Just finished reading this. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing. Will try not to buy junk today.

    • Yeah it's not too bad a read.

      Bit of a stream of consciousness thing, but that's possibly hard to avoid.

  • +1

    I wonder if people who spend their paychecks quickly and cry poor until the next payday would be open to this information.

  • So everyone that reads this leaves ozbargain community? Or just the zappals and bangood lovers

  • Making my $$ work is equally important

  • Not available for purchase??

  • Still available on the US store.

  • Costs money now, I accident paid $5 via 1-click…. So additional tip… Read cost before clicking 1click button

    • Is there no way to refund?
