FIRE Finance welcomes you heartily to The Holiday Edition of the 105th Festival of Frugality. We are honored to host this year's last edition of this esteemed festival which is an ever fresh source of some great tips on frugal living and savings. For first time visitors to our blog, there are many useful articles strewn around for your perusal. A majority of these gems cover our personal experiences in investing, frugality and finance. We were inspired to share our experiences as well as learn from other fellow souls, on our journey towards Financial Independence by Retiring Early and thus this blog took birth.
Now that our introduction is over, let's delve into the theme of this festival. The Festival of Frugality's is about sharing creative ideas on frugal living which allow us to get that extra saving while spending our hard earned dollars. Frugal living is one of the main pillars of success in personal finance. Success in frugality helps us go a long way towards leading a healthy financial life.
