In actuality it is simply getting total control over what we have and living within our means. One of the main reasons we are in the dire straights we are in with our economy today is because so many wanted to live way higher than they were able too.  Buying houses too large and expensive, buying the bigger more luxurious automobile or SUV and basically living high on the hog.

We all need to learn to live on less and we will make it throiugh this recession or depression depending how you look on it
