Do you think it's essential to keep a solid buffer between you and disaster or did you sacrifice that to the gods of "living life to the fullest right here and now"? Or mayhaps you're struggling to keep a boat afloat as it is and going cheaper isn't really an option for you as you are already at the timit of cheapness for your specific situation and saving seems like an unachievable goal, becauase everything goes to surviving?

I don't, but it's mostly because I don't want much/consumption is not fulfilling for me. My wife is somewhere in the middle, even if she enjoys new things way more than me, but we're financially privileged all in all so we're alright.
