The best life will be to live a very frugal life. Avoid all luxuries, do not waste money on going to movies, eat best at home, never visit hotels, do not buy luxuries very often and keep saving like a miser. Our grandfathers lived such a life and it will save us at all difficult times.

No pun intended and absolutely no offence to anyone but I have personally found many of my South Indian colleagues behaving like this. Being software professionals, we frequently go abroad for software assignments. This trait becomes more so profound there. On another thoughts it may be relative. What seems frugal to us might be other way round for some one else and for some other persons our ways might be more frugal than theirs.

Dear Anup,
You are right. I know 'cause I am a south Indian and I a person as you stated above. Just the diference is that we South Indians spend pretty well when in India and try to a little thrify when we are abrode. This is to make sure that we bring back something substantial in a short period like an year or 2 and belive me I am helping some of my collegues from North to make them learn how to improve their savings when in abrode. They are pretty happy with my strategies. I feel there is nothing wrong in being a good Manager of your own hard earned money.
