Rebecca Ash spent the first years of her working life in China living on ?80 a month. After moving back to London she became a copywriter and spent the next ten years trying to persuade other people to buy, buy, buy... spend, spend, spend - and liked that philosophy so much, she started to live her life that way. However, Rebecca came to realise that frugality and a less avaricious approach to life can be equally rewarding, particularly if you have to live on a skin-tight budget. Rebecca has since quit the job, quit London and quit spending and is now a freelance writer raising her two children away from the city, living a less consumerist, more fulfilling life.
