TightwadsThere's saving money, and there's being tight: saving money at the expense of other people, or simply for the miserly hell of it.
Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

thankyouyes I did work hard for it.
I pulled myself out of a council estate, and not by profiteering from other people.
Ive presented these facts as a contrast to what I see in being a tightwad :
Associating your self worth with how much money you have in the bank.
I prefer to use the money to bring as much pleasure to myself and the people I can share it with.

But....You still owe a massive tax bill. Too tight to pay that?

tax bill.So you could afford to pay it with a month's salary? However you haven't and probably won't. Why not stump up the cash, tightwad, and then you can boast guilt-free?
