Wow, you know I never thought about this, but you’re absolutely right. Luckily I don’t have too many of these people in my life. I do have 1 high roller who’s a great friend, which can be difficult when we go out to dinner, but we’re always in a group of 4 with my other budgeting friend who helps to balance it out. This is good advice to be on the lookout for these people.

We have friends who love to have cookouts. Sounds frugal enough right? Not so much…They like to do it BIG! Ribs, Chicken, Burgers, Hot Dogs, Pork Chops, 10 sides, Beer, Soda, etc. I can’t even imagine putting that all together. They do it so big that you feel bad showing up with just baked beans and potatoe salad so we’ll bring a case of beer to gift as well. I tell Mr. Crackin’ it’s like going out to dinner at an all you can eat buffet.

Jason @ The Butler Journal Thanks, Jason! Having a competitor as an associate must be difficult! You don’t have as much say about how often you interact with them compared to having a competitor friend.
