I lived on beans mostly the last 3 months of my mission. Ended up saving 300 bucks. The ZL found out what I was doing and told me that I was stealing from the church. I said, oh contre...my parents were paying for my mission, not the church, therefore it's MY money, and I withdrew IT ALL before they could do anything with it, came home, and got myself a nice stereo with a 5 disk cd changer.
