At least, that's what many people in the financial space would claim. Being frugal is commonly seen as a good thing, presumably because it enables you to save more money. The environmentally conscious might see value in frugality as a means to reducing overall consumption. YNAB, one could argue, aims to make you more frugal. But YNAB is more interested in a deeper question:&amp;nbsp;why be more frugal? &amp;nbsp; The first habit in the YNAB method is to give every dollar a job. To do so, you have to know what it is you want your money to do for you, where you are aiming at. Saving money is a great thing, but YNAB encourages you to ask the question: for what? &amp;nbsp; Being frugal is not an answer. It is merely the means by which you get to the answer! &amp;nbsp; Got a question for Jesse?
