Comment on Why a Six-Figure Salary No Longer Means You’re Richparent

Comments

My favorite quote from the article:

There are a lot of ways to be frugal, but you can start with driving older (paid-off) cars and tracking your expenses to ensure that your family spending aligns with your values and goals.

So I guess being "frugal" means that you track your expenses and not live beyond your means?

I caught that too, words cannot express my distaste for that kind of mentality. It's unfortunate that normalcy to the author is not keeping track of finances and buying things you cannot afford.
