Live extremely frugally after becoming famous

Despite her well-off finances, Jennifer Lawrence shares that she still doesn’t feel comfortable flaunting her money or using it for frivolous branded products. In an interview with Fabulous, the actress confided: “I grew up and was taught the value of money, always respecting hard-earned money no matter how big the assets are.” She applied These financial principles and attitudes help you budget for big expenses as well as small purchases.

Jennifer Lawrence grew up in a modest family, raised and educated by a construction worker and summer camp manager. Instead of spending her childhood in country clubs, the actress played sports and helped out at the summer camp where her mother worked. It wasn’t until she pursued acting in New York that she began to have better finances and a more stable income. Yet, perhaps because of the lessons and experiences from her childhood, Jennifer Lawrence still holds to her principles when it comes to finances, making her a great role model for young people in how to manage their finances. personal self.

Never spend money on new clothes or cars

Jennifer Lawrence may have millions in her bank account. However, from her lifestyle and daily activities, you can hardly notice that. She works with many fashion houses, but has a rather small wardrobe for a celebrity because she doesn’t care about fashion.

In an interview with Fabulous magazine, the actress mentioned: “I hate shopping. My mother once took me to TJ Maxx – a chain of high-end and mid-range brand retail stores – and I almost fainted from boredom.”

Besides, many times the public discovered that the actress often uses fashion products at affordable prices. It includes the sneakers, which are available on Amazon for about $60 (nearly 1.5 million VND).

Jennifer Lawrence also doesn’t “upgrade” to a new car. In her interview with Fabulous in 2013, when she was very famous when she won an Oscar, Jennifer Lawrence shared, “I still drive the same car that I owned. “I’ve been using it for a long time. I haven’t bought a house yet.”

Always hunt for discount codes

“I still look for bargains in the supermarket ,” the Hunger Games star told Now Daily. Besides liking “buy 2 get 1 free” items, Jennifer Lawrence also limits shopping for expensive items. For example, she will not spend $6 (150 thousand) to buy a small protein bar but will choose a product with similar quality but much cheaper.

However, when hunting for discount codes, remember to only buy what you need. For example, a fancy store offers a discount on an item you’ve been wanting for a long time, but only in a size smaller than what you normally wear. Then, you convince yourself that one day you will lose weight and “show off” it. But in reality, those items stay at the bottom of the closet forever.

Don’t let your imagination divert attention from the cost and practicality of an item. Before making a purchase, ask yourself whether you will use the item in the near future. If the answer is no or not likely, skip it.

Know how to increase commercial value

In addition to her acting career, Jennifer Lawrence also has a production company, Excellent Cadaver, which she founded in 2018. The actress also earns between $15 and $20 million (372 – 496 billion VND) in an advertising contract with Dior.

While many celebrities make money from social media, this female star hardly uses any social media accounts unless she needs to advertise as required by her brand contracts. This really helped the actress increase her commercial value. Jennifer Lawrence appears almost exclusively in her works, while also building a “mystique” that limits the public’s reach.
