How frugal are you?

Do you take your income for granted and blow it all because you think it will always flow at the same level or higher or do you play it conservative and spend less than you make because you feel the tap can stop flowing at any time? Do you analyze and research items you buy to get the most value for the least amount of money? Or do you just buy what you want because you want it? Do you drive a car that solely fits your needs or do you drive a car that makes you look rich to outsiders, and so on? I think of this every time I see the landlord of my office building that holds about $50MM in commercial property and I have never seen him in any other car than a 1999 Ford Ranger for the past 5 years.
