[quote=Anonymous]A combination of things for me: 1. Religious beliefs. I should live for the spiritual, not the material. Even in a non-religious sense, I think it is good to be happy with less. 2. I don't want to be without money when I really need it i.e. house downpayment (we have a house now but that motivated me at first), retirement, health crisis, childcare expenses, general emergencies. 3. My parents were frugal. It bugged the hell out of me as a kid. But I think it influenced me subconsciously. Also my husband is frugal. 4. It satisfies some of my calculating, planning urges. 5. Habit, at this point. [/quote]
