Sarah Jessica Parker

As it turns out, Sarah Jessica Parker leads her life completely the opposite way her character from “Sex and the City” does. In reality, she’s not a Blahnik-crazed fashionista like Bradshaw. In fact, she’s not the type to blow $945 on a pair of pumps.

It’s just not her style. She even explained that’s just how she was brought up, and that she wants to keep the tradition with her own children. She even recalled how 100% of her son’s T-shirts are used, and that he enjoys buying his items at thrift shops. Her daughter wears hand-me-downs, and that they are very comfortable with the idea of passing down clothes in their family for three generations.

Zooey Deschanel

Actor Zooey Deschanel doesn’t like the idea of living a lavish life, and she even has the legal documents to prove it. During her 2012 divorce from musician Ben Gibbard, the court papers became available to the public.

They also included all her financial details, which listed an average monthly income of $95,000 and assets going far beyond $3 million, which also include cash, stocks, and bonds. Her spending incorporates only 25% of her income, and her credit cards have zero balance. Assuming Deschanel kept exercising with great restraint, we commend her on living well with her means.

    Hopefully they all have silver and gold tucked away. If you can’t hold it you may not own it?

    This was a very interesting Review!! Thank You!! I Never knew that about Halle Berry!! That impressed me!! On the other hand, I absolutely knew that about Warren Buffet as I’ve attended many seminars who often spoke of Warren Buffet’s Frugal nature of spending!

    If he’s so frugal who pays for all his cars…antique and otherwise? Or for all their environmental storages garages?

    I have to say this, I am so tired of hearing about the medical field finding out a new way to help my pain and maybe get me of pain killers. It sounds great and then here it comes,,,,, the cost of i t$$$$$, unreal. How bout this key me try it for 30 days without spending anything. Don’t give me some BS about money back guarantee because it takes six weeks if you ever get your money back and since being on disability only allow me a certain amount of money I can’t do that. I don’t understand Why is this so-called vitamin can help me so much? It can’t be priced better for those of us who don’t make enough to get by every month. And don’t tell me to put it on a credit card because my credit card get used every month for food and electric and other things until that card no longer has space so save that excuse. So here’s what I should do stay on the painkillers I have which brought my teeth which cause an infection, which makes me not be able to get my knee fixed and let’s not talk about my hips. That’ll be needing fixing soon all because there’s a vitamin that could help me, but you’re too freaking cheap to give it to me, but I’ll keep spending that money on those painkillers to stay alive to only hurt more. Thanks for your time but there Will be no thank you for what you say will help me because you won’t let it help me.
