How I live and how I work

Someone gave me this financial advice once: "Keep your lifestyle 3 to 5 years behind your growing income."

I followed it and have had a similar experience. Since my first job, I went and got an MBA, paid off the student loan, bought a house and at 31, I still have enough savings to last me 3-4 years at my family's current lifestyle.

Frugality is powerful.

"bought" a house or taken a loan?

Bought. I didn't need a loan.
