Jay Leno
Comedian Jay Leno always preferred living a frugal life, and he stayed that way even after he earned millions of dollars hosting “The Tonight Show.” In his younger years, when he was struggling to become a standup comedian, he decided to add to his income a couple of bucks by working at a car dealership.
Leno decided to spend only his comedy money, and banking larger amounts of money that he earned from the dealership. He kept doing this during the “Tonight Show” years, only spending the smallest income from standup dates and banking his television salary. “I’ve never touched a dime of my ‘Tonight Show’ money.”
Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence made a ton of money off her involvement in the $1.6 billion “Hunger Games” movie franchise, to such a degree that you would even think she would treat herself to a bit of the high life. But, as it turns out, she doesn’t.
The actor is worth $160 million, and still shops at discount stores and engages in the act of clipping coupons. She even recalled how she still looks for bargains when shopping at the market.
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Speaking of clipping coupons, Sarah Michelle Gellar loves clipping coupons. As a matter of fact, she avidly participates in this kind of pursuit, speaking credibly and quite authoritatively about her habit. “One time I remember being in Bloomingdale’s and they had these coupons – Bloomingdale’s has great coupons – and I was taking them all out for holiday shopping.”
She also recalled how someone behind her turned around and stated that they couldn’t believe how long she was taking to shop. Someone even asked her why she’s using coupons, and she answered that there’s no point in paying more if there are coupons available.
