Know anyone like this? Very frugal even when rich liao still frugal

[dambio]

frugal is good.

but there are people that took advantage of others and claim that they're being frugal - what do you call these types of people?

stingy is not the right term, i think. freeloader is closer but there's a more accurate term for them.

anyone knows?

Exploit leeching?

Some rich people also will count one.

My ASK friend wanted to change the house dining set. His dad went to some atas shop and was quoted $8k. He tell me expensive and will go Malaysia and custom make at lower price.

Like they lived their whole lives working hard, working smart, smart with their money
Then even when they become rich, nothing changed about them, still living very modestly

Like actually getting rich also made no difference to their lifestyle

Got anyone you know like this?

its personality driven isn't it. u don't suddenly like to eat steak just bcos u got rich.

I feel it's also habit driven. These are actually the habits that made them rich also
