Hi! Welcome to my blog! This is where you can follow my attempts to live the good life while working 20 hours a week. And sometimes less.
I hope you can pick up some ideas how you too can channel the power of cheapness.
To start things off, here's a summary of my cheap-tivities for today:
-Instead of buying The Social Contract, Plato's Politics, and Plato's Ethics, which I needed for school, I read them for free on the floor in Barnes and Noble.
-At the pizzeria where I got a slice for lunch, I asked for a free cup of water instead of buying a drink.
-Instead of going out tonight and spending money, I am writing a blog.
During my reading today, I came across this gem:
The word 'finance' is the word of a slave.
–Jean-Jacques Rousseau
What this means is anybody's guess, but I'm inclined to think he was on to something.

Hmmm, you're cheap. You spend evenings at home, alone, blogging. You're interested in fake mermaid sitings.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess...you're single, right?
