I learned from my Dad,a child of the Depression,to be frugal...and debt free.He always drove Oldsmobiles despite being able to afford better. He always wore Timex watches when he could afford better. He never denied my Mom,or us,anything. Mom liked nice clothes and he always said yes.

"Live below your means" was how he,personally,lived.

My favorite book which teaches “Living below your means” is “The Way to Wealth” by Benjamin Franklin.

My parents were also children of the depression. I was taught and learned the SAME lessons.
