the article you read in the reader's digest has confirmed what i thought is a common but unknown trait among the rich - frugality.
in a poor country like the philippines....frugality (being matipid) should be one trait that must be inculcated in each and everyone of us. unfortunately, it is commonly mistaken as being a miser (kuripot) like scrooge, the main character in Charles Dickens' 1843 novella A Christmas Carol whose name has come into the English language as a byword for miserliness and misanthropy
anybody who has done a comparison between bar soaps and liquid soaps? which is more economical?
i believe one of the better ways to economize is to use generic items not those branded ones heavily promoted by advertisements. unfortunately, we filipinos have a penchant of using well known brands as in designer items where in we spend more of the brand than the item we are buying.
syempre iba ang sikat! (kahit na walang laman ang bulsa!)
