Episode 4073:

Quotes to ponder:

"Maybe a better phrase for frugal, at least the way I think of it, is financially-efficient."

"The key to a good life is thinking about one’s decisions, rather than going on autopilot."

"Experiences and education are methods of transferring financial value into personal value."
