When it comes to money, different people have different perspectives. While some want to spend every single day like it’s their last and spend their money on luxuries and good stuff, others live frugally and believe they should be saving money for rainy days. Of course, not spending a lot isn’t a bad thing, but being a cheapskate indeed lowers the quality of life, and not only of the person who isn’t willing to spend anything but on their family too.

If you are lucky not to know what it feels like to be sharing a roof with a cheapskate, read the following stories shared by people on Reddit to see their crazy experiences.

When my dad moved into his house, he had a guy come over to do a free demonstration for a water filter that goes under a sink. The guy used a bar of soap for his demonstration and left it when he was done.

My dad called at least four other companies for a free demonstration just to keep the free bar of soap and never intended to have a water filter installed. He does things like this, which worsens as he ages. But I just let him do his thing.
