I live in Austin also, and am not interested in fliying to other countries to track down cheap &amp;#39;hoes. However, I didn&amp;#39;t find anything at all wrong with this article. As for frugal ppl not being any fun, you&amp;#39;ve never partied with me, I&amp;#39;m way frugal, and probably one of the most fun ppl you&amp;#39;ll ever meet! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.moneycentral.msn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=123997" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: This Texas bachelor is a frugalist and a ladies' man</title><link>http://blogs.moneycentral.msn.com/smartspending/archive/2008/07/22/this-texas-bachelor-is-a-frugalist-and-a-ladies-man.aspx#121613</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 16:35:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e8f7cd84-7062-45ca-8a00-3f24dfc10bb9:121613</guid><dc:creator>Pchan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m pretty sure this is a spoof blog. &amp;nbsp;Just sayin&amp;#39;.&lt;/p&gt;

Nothing new here. &amp;nbsp; For over the past century U.S. Navy sailors (enlisted mostly) have been retiring to tropical asian countries and opening a bar or just living to drink and chase women. &amp;nbsp;Anyone who has had liberty in the P.I. knows what I mean.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Just as women in this country sell their assets for the highest bidder (good body=marry a rich man), women in third world countries do too, but their standards are different being on a lower economic scale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Raen...why don&amp;#39;t you take things a little more seriously instead of telling me to lighten up? &amp;nbsp;This Frugal Bachelor guy is not impressive. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, take a look at Frugal Bachelor&amp;#39;s blog; he has some good ideas and a different sensibility from those of us with responsibilities for spouses, kids, and dogs with expensive allergies. &amp;nbsp;Also, he has the freedom to travel and has some interesting insights on life outside the U.S.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you like reading about people like that, go for it. &amp;nbsp;And by the way...why thank Karen Datko? &amp;nbsp;She is getting paid to do this crap. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;To Karen Datko, thanks for posting articles from many sources, even &amp;#39;unorthodox&amp;#39; ones!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.moneycentral.msn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=121060" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
