My wife's cousin lives this way, has for over a decade, and seems to have the kind of social network that enables this kind of living. I'm doing more than fine as a developer, and although I come from meager backgrounds came quite comfortably into having money as soon as I found employment, but do not have the kind of focus and spending discipline that living on a little requires. Perhaps everyone could cultivate an appreciation for income and really learn where they wanted to spend it. You can live on a little and have a lot, but it's very possible to have a lot and still have very little that actually matters.
