Tightwads
There'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.

i think your comprehension is a little basic.
The word "my" was used.

The thing is
I'm a tightwad, not through choice, but through necessity. I earn under 20 grand a year, despite working my arse off, so I have to be.
That being said I have no thoughts of self-importance at all and have had to learn to appreciate every penny I have, and I mean every penny. I have no debts but have a bit of money put aside for a rainy day. I haven't been abroad in 5 years but I still have enjoyable holidays around the country every 6 months. I have a ten year old laptop which runs slowly on a cold day yet I've patched it up continually and it still runs like clock work so I'm loathe to replace it.
I am perfectly happy and content with my life and have no regrets nor any desire to have such expensive and wonderful toys as you do, as frankly I feel I would turn in to the pompous idiot you come across as in your original, and subsequent, posts.
