its-how-you-become-rich/

A 10 here, a 10 there, it really

adds up and before you know it,

you’ve spent more than 50,000

that day.

Think carefully about it

and consider whether

or not it’s really necessary.

This way,

you won’t be tempted

to eat

junk food

or processed stuff,

which can really add up.

Seriously-you’ll save so much money on a

variety of stuff.

They’re usually

a lot cheaper

than places like

Lotte Mart or Emart,

especially the Lotte,

which as we

all know if total

and complete

rip-off.

http://www.iherb.com/

It’s an

American company

that specializes

in health food,

vitamins and supplements,

although they do

have all the

junk food from

Home, as well

(ummm…Salt & Vinegar chips!!!).

Stay at home and enjoy Korea instead of taking expensive tropical vacations around Asia, particularly if you’re paying off debt.

Although health care in Korea is cheap, it’ll

still cost you something so try to be as

healthy as possible.

Here are my top tips to help you out with

this: http://freedomthroughpassiveincome.com/frugal-

your-next-christmas-potluck-party/

It’ll be delicious,

people will appreciate

a healthy option

and it will be way

less expensive than

bringing meat products.

You can haggle for stuff in markets, or find some

Korean friends.

Even if it’s like an hour or two, it really is possible.

Things like oil,

laundry soap

and pasta sauce

are on sale a lot

so never buy them

at full price.

Just hold out for

a 1+1 sale and get 2!

They’re really cheap and healthy too. Fried,

boiled, poached, scrambled, etc, etc. Yum!

You’ll save a hundred won or so every single time

you take the subway or bus.

You’ll get some tax credit of some sort at the

end of the year.

You’ll have to pay a fee, which can add up.

Most of it is way overpriced in Korea. The more you can live like a Korean, the less money you’ll

spend

It’s great exercise, there are a million and one

mountains and you can enjoy some quality

conversation time with your friends.

When you get busy, you can just grab and go instead of having to eat out.

You can transfer money

to your home country

way more cheaply

and easily than going

into the bank and

having the

teller do it for you.

Sure, it’s fun but conditions are terrible in

Korea and it’s also wicked expensive. If you’re

lucky, you can maybe see a sea urchin!

Go to local book-swaps for free reading

material or exchange with friends.

eat-vegan/

It’s great for your health and good for the wallet,

especially in Korea where things like meat and

dairy are really expensive.

Do as the Koreans do!

Nothing says accountability than everyone

knowing about your splurges!

You know, the ones who waited to sell their crap

until like 2 days before they’re leaving.

Here’s how I shop for food and household stuff,

cheaply.

http://freedomthroughpassiveincome.com/frugal-living-the-

shopping-list-and-taking-advantage-of-sales/

Make it your

biggest meal

of the day,

by far.

Then, just eat

something small

for breakfast

and dinner.

SLUD7&redirect=true&ref_=as_li_tl&tag=justwa-20

It’s going to be

the best

$3.99 you spend

all year,

for sure.

I’ve survived for a lot of years in Korea

without it. You can too!

Do all your errands, get to work, meet friends, etc.

Eat at the student cafeteria.

http://freedomthroughpassiveincome.com/frugal-and-

healthy-living-snacks-and-meals-at-work/

DO NOT go out to eat all the time.

Here’s how to bring some snacks with you:

road-trip-snacks/

If you don’t want

to fill up

your bottles

at work,

get a Brita

which will be

way cheaper

than buying bottles.

You’ll be happy

to stay home

instead of always

feeling like

you need

to go out.

Plus, you can

invite friends over.

It’s kind of expensive and you can exercise for

free easily enough.

You probably have

a balcony so

take advantage of it,

especially herbs

which are way

too expensive

in Korea

and not

easy to find.

These are my tried and tested

tips to Frugal Living

in South Korea.
