I love this!!! And I did not know this correct meaning of frugal. Always thought it was a nice word for "cheap" or "thrifty" with a not great connotation.

But it turns out I'm a frugal minimalist, too!! I live a simple life and I don't want or need much. I'm happy to share my money when I see someone in need of something and I can help, or treat myself or someone I care about to a little something special.

Like you, I don't need to replace my worn clothes - until I really WANT some lovely new item I see. And I'd rather spend money on fun experiences and making others happy or helping them where I can, than have a fancy car or expensive "stuff."

Thanks for an enlightening read!
