[quote=Anonymous]We did it six years ago, and we've never been happier. We have a nicely updated yet very small (2000 sq ft, if you include our finished basement) home. We don't have a big house to show off, but the trade off is that we take weekend getaways twice monthly in the summer months, and we take 2-3 vacations a year. Our experiences and leisure far outweigh the benefits of extra space in a house. (We still make max contributions to retirement, and put funds into savings every month.) We have friends with huge (mostly empty) houses, and they always want to know why we don't upgrade. But they never travel as much as we do, and we just prefer experience over space. And the cut in pay created the time we needed to have these adventures. For us, it works. [/quote]
