Today on Take Control Tuesday, Mansa Musa gives us five characteristics of a frugal mindset. By the way, none of the characteristics contain the word “cheap.” Mansa said as we maneuver through these uncertain times, it’s time to “up your game just to stay where you are.” That starts with a frugal mindset.
