Summarize the following:
The key to living a modest lifestyle is living within your means. That means avoiding extravagance and settling for the basics. You don't have to deprive yourself to live modestly - you just have to value function and practicality over luxurious status symbols.  Drive a car that is safe, comfortable, and works well. Don't choose a car for its flashiness or status value. Buy or rent a home that is sturdy, comfortable, and in a safe neighborhood. If you only need two bedrooms then don't rent or buy a place with three bedrooms. Find out the average cost to purchase a home in your area and try to work within that price range (if it fits your budget). One easy way to live a more modest lifestyle is to buy items that are used or discounted instead of paying full price. This can help you save on the basics when you're at the store. Look for items on sale, discount, or clearance when you're at a retail store. You can also check thrift stores for gently-used items available at a fraction of the cost of new items.  Gently-used items are often in like-new condition. You can find these at thrift stores, consignment shops, and pawn shops. Many clothing stores put out-of-season garments on clearance. These can typically be purchased at a very low cost. Check stores that are going out of business, as they often have good deals to move products out the door. Living modestly and humbly means emphasizing your values ahead of the opinions of others. Don't trouble yourself wondering whether others are impressed with you or with your possessions. Instead, focus on living a meaningful and upstanding life.
Live within your means. Buy used or discount items whenever possible. Try not to worry about whether others are impressed.
