Because every family has their own tolerance level
, we need to think about what we can and cannot live on. Saving money is successful if you're able actually adapt to the frugal lifestyle you made for yourself. Sometimes taking frugality to the next level will backfire on you, leaving you feel stressed, unhappy and very deprived. It will take a toll on your daily life and relationship with the family, especially if your spouse doesn't agree with your way. It can also anger your children, or have them feel as if you're not supposed enjoy what you have. Taking things to the extreme is not always a good idea, as there's always something bad that's going to happened around the corner. Rethink your options, search more ways to effectively save money and cut costs. There's a difference between being smart and frugal and just plain unnecessary suffering by giving up all the comforts in life.
