Extreme frugality allowed me to retire at 32 – and regain control of my life

While I am aware of the amount of money I “waste” (whatever that means) I feel this article doesn’t actually tell us what these two started with.

If I only paid my mortgage and utilities, no longer had a dog walker, and spent only $30 a week on food (I know this must be possible, I was a student once :) ) I could save for 10 years and I’m still fairly sure I wouldn’t have save nearly enough to retire
