Well, my personal opinion is that the best and invincible starting point is this: TO SWITCH TO THE "MINIMALIST" LIFESTYLE!
I did. Extremely useful. And not only financially but emotionally too. Less stress, for example...

You are delightful! I appreciate how you present frugality as a viable and acceptable living option as opposed to something that is shameful. I also appreciate how you get right to the point without a lot of fluff and unnecessary words. I look forward to watching your channel grow. ♥

I like to challenge myself by having a monthly theme - for example, for NO-vember, I decided to say "no" to any purchase outside of necessary food (no junk food), regular bills, or necessary household repairs. So far, so good!

With winter either here or poking its head around the corner, probably the least expensive, yet “really effective at keeping you warm” scarves are ones made with 9-12” (1/4 yd or 1/3 yd) 60” wide outerwear fleece. Often you can get this fabric at 40% off (like at Joanns or Michael’s); Walmart has outerwear fleece at great prices even without a sale. You do not need to sew, not even hand-sewing. At the short ends, (9” across or 12” across) I cut fringe by snipping about 3” in, every 1-1.5” or so. This fabric does not unravel, so no need to finish the edges. These scarves also make great practical gifts.

Thank you. I like your direct, clearly stated, and comprehensive presentation. While I have enjoyed some other's kitchen table videos, the personal content and rambling histories can be distracting from the helpful information and advice that I need. Well done.

Your content is concise and informative! I've been frugal for a long time, but still enjoy learning from others. You have some great ideas and information. Keep up the good work!

To create something with our own hand gives us multiple benefits. First of all, to save money... but on the other hand it is a very enjoyable hobby as well!
For example, in the last months I got the idea to learn bushcrafting, learn survival tricks and primitive lifestyle... to that, I wanted to have a portable woodstove. Or at least something "stand" above the amber and below the pot... Naturally there are dozens and hundreds of items like that, a wide variety on the Ebay or Amazon... But I spent for those exactly zero cents! I myself made it from varius things of metal trashes. But the result is not a trash at all... On the contrary, it is rather "good-looking"! Okay, it is good visible that it is a homemade stuff, and it has numerous minor imperfections, small flaws, but it is VERY DURABLE, I can even sit on it with my 82 kg of weight... it is ready to the "heavy duty"... It is not a vulnerable, thinnish tin, a cheap nothing from China which could have been used just for one or two occasions... And it is easy to disassemble, because it is made with screws... So it is easy to transport in a small bag! And it is SOOO good feeling whenever I see it that it is MY CREATION! It is personalized, it is my "precious"...

Thats what I'm doing but have to modify

TV is absolutely useless. Give your TV to your biggest enemy...
In place of TV, watch youtube videos! It is free, and more useful, because there are so many channels from which one can learn something useful...
