Reading Time: 13 minutes OK guys, we are BACK! Who’s excited?!!! I know I am, let’s DO THIS. Do what you ask? Finish off the last post (read here), which was the first part of the response to my schoolmate DP ‘s question: Knowing everything you do now, what path would you tell your 15 year old self to go down? So let’s get to it, onto the next part! Wait, aren’t you forgetting something? Oh yeah, that’s right – before we jump in, I have to mention a big THANK YOU to everyone who commented and read through the previous post, it was one of the more commented on posts I’ve…

What Path Would You Tell Your 15 Year Old Self To Go Down (Part 1)
Reading Time: 13 minutes What’s up guys and gals! How’s everyone’s weekend coming along? SPRING is finally here for reals – WOOP WOOP! For those of us who are a bit pooped out from all that glorious sunshine and outdoor activities, what better way to unwind than to sit back and relax for another rendition of… THE FRUGAL SAMURAI! Cue drums and buxom dancers. Been so darn busy recently that it’s the first proper time I’ve had, to take a breath – so you’ve caught me in a bit of a reflective mood. Yesterday, I was going through the old Facebook absent-mindedly, checking out who’s doing what and with whom…

5 Ways to Combat Stress
Reading Time: 5 minutes What’s up guys – how y’all doing? Hope everyone’s having a great weekend! The days are slowly getting longer which means we’re coming through the back end of winter, as we limp forward through the second half of 2018. How’s your year coming along? Hopefully it’s been productive and fruitful so far. If not – don’t fret, still some time left to get cracking! Sometimes though, I have this feeling that I’m spinning wheels for the sake of spinning them as opposed to actually gaining any ground. Know what I mean? These days, there’s a seeming badge of honour to boast as to how “busy” we…

Go On, Reflect!
Reading Time: 3 minutes Last night whilst watching the 3rd/4th playoff of the World Cup – I found myself in an inadvertent quasi high-school reunion. There were 7 of us and more than half of the group I have not caught up with in years. What a pleasant surprise to see such old faces, all grown up! They say people change, but yknow honestly – I don’t think we’ve changed much, if at all – deep down, the same pimply, scrawny and adolescent schoolboys jostling each other, trying to one-up and cheer each other on. Boys will be boys. You know, it’s funny when you look back and remember your…

Half-Yearly Report Card, Goals Update and Verdicts – The Good, The Bad and The Ugly…
Reading Time: 5 minutes What’s Up Frugal Samuraites!!! We’re back again for another sitting of the Frugal Samurai. Hope everyone’s enjoying the wonderful warmth of Winter – don’t worry it’ll be over soon! Speaking of wonderful, how bloody insane has this year’s World Cup been eh? It’s the most alive and drama filled tournament we have had in DECADES. The quality, passion and emotions of the games has certainly lived up to expectations. So much so that the halfway mark of the year passed with barely a whimper. Wait… say that again? Seriously, HALFWAY already? That’s right – we’ve officially passed the halfway point for 2018, where did the time…
