Frugal and Fabulous Replay
My friends Mr. and Mrs. Frugalwoods may have recently reached official Frugal Rockstar Status with their feature on Forbes; however, before their rise to Frugal Fame, they sat down to talk about their journey to financial independence by 33 on my podcast.Since I am on vacation from blogging and podcasting for two weeks, I am replaying two of my favorite episodes and the conversation with Mr. and Mrs. Frugalwoods is one of those. I really enjoyed hearing about their journey and discussing why frugality isn't as mainstream as it should be. If you haven't heard this yet, I hope you enjoy it and if you have, it's worth a re-listen. Below are the notes from when this originally aired in November 2014.
What are we drinking?
The Frugal-tini
The frugal-tini is essentially a gimlet, and it's the most frugal martini I could think of as it only requires gin or vodka and a lime.
2 oz of Gin or Vodka
1 oz of fresh lime juice
Shake on ice and serve in a martini glass*If you want to make a non-alchoholic version of this, you can just shake up some limeade on ice and it will taste about the same.
Podcast Notes
Mr. and Mrs. Frugalwoods share a number of things including:
How they met each other and when their frugality started
The anticipated location of their future homestead and what they plan to do on it
Why they're lifestyle is "alternative" when it shouldn't be
Why goal setting is so important in the pursuit of financial freedom
How much they think they will live on when they are financially free
