      This means not living above their means or buying luxurious items just to have them. Looking for the best deals isn't a waste of time when it enables them to spend the time and money savings in better ways. They're also aware of how they spend their time. They don't overcommit; as Buffett himself said, they're infamous for saying "no." Attending an acquaintance's birthday party on Saturday may sound like a blast. But if you've already made plans to work toward a goal, politely declining the invite will ensure you don't spread yourself too thin.
