Why? I don't need the publicity and I enjoy my quiet, frugal yet profitable lifestyle. Once the media is involved all hell breaks loose.<BR/>Frugal is nothing new. Millionaires have been doing it for years. Millionaires don't use credit cards nor boast about their rewards, mileage points or whatever gimmick.
