Getting Over My Mental Block of Being Too Cheap

By Anne 11 Comments

It is SO possible to be too cheap. Undo the mental blocks that are you keeping you there!

The Bottom

You made it all the way to the bottom! Thanks so much for reading.
Did you know that The Bottom is the name of a town on the island of Saba, in the Caribbean? I went there on a trip once.
The other bottoms I think about are my own bottom, and the bottom of the champagne bottle. Often when I find the bottom of the champagne bottle, my own bottom grows. Funny, that.

Thanks for reading!
