Frugal Living: Definition, Key Principles, Benefits, and Practical Tips

14 August 2025 | MyProtection News Jakarta

In today’s fast-paced, modern, and consumer-driven urban lifestyle, frugal living has emerged as a practical solution for those who want to manage their finances more wisely and effectively. By adopting this lifestyle, individuals can make smarter spending decisions, save more, and work towards long-term financial stability.

Recent data from the Indonesia Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS) reveals a concerning trend: among Millennials and Gen Z aged 15 to 44, their contribution to total national savings dropped from 18% in 2022 to 14.6% in 2024. This indicates that younger generations may be saving less, making frugal living an even more relevant and necessary approach.

So, what is frugal living exactly? How can you start applying it in daily life? And what are the benefits of living frugally in the long run? Let’s dive into the principles, practical tips, and advantages of this smart lifestyle choice.
