    Wouldn't putting an egg in your ramen be more expensive than just eating your fucking ramen.

    From the page: "1. Put an egg in your Ramen" Seriously. Cheap--cook the ramen noodles, beat a couple eggs & the seasoning from the ramen package. Add cooked noodles to eggs, pour into pan, cook (turning once). Makes a pretty good frittata. To add more flavoring, top with shredded cheese, &/or salsa of your choice.

    These are excellent tips written in an entertaining style but what I found most fascinating is the comments that were posted. As a person who lives in a semi-remote location and who has led a very simple and frugal life for 30 years, drawing water from my well and splitting my own firewood, charity shop thrift purchasing and recycling, I'm astonished by the whining that was evident in the comments. On one hand, I'd love to give the whiners a dose of real simple living close to the land so they could break their addictions to the consumer society. On the other hand, I don't think I'd enjoy their company ... lol :D

    I don't normally review something with a cuss word, but he is right it kind of fits. Great list.

    T-Bucket's a champ. He's gonna get through this damn recession with his dignity and sense of humour intact. There isn't a bad piece of advice on here.
