Does The Envelope Method Really Work?

Many people struggle with budgeting.

And I have to agree– budgeting isn’t easy. First of all, it takes some time to properly allocate your money. How much is going to your food expenses? How about your transportation costs?

5 Ways To Be More Frugal Everyday

Are you frugal?

According to a study by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Americans need around $40,000 a year in order to live comfortably. The minimum wage? Roughly $15,000.

In different parts of the world, this is no different.

In South Korea, for example, the average annual expense to live a comfortable life is roughly $16,800. The minimum wage? Around $14,400. A bit better than the US.

In the Philippines, meanwhile, to have a comfortable life as a single person, you have to spend around $9,000 a year. The minimum wage? A pitiful $3,200.”|

It’s getting harder and harder to save money in this high-consumption world, but that’s why it’s more important than ever to be frugal.

Here are some simple tips that can help you be more frugal in your everyday life.
