[quote=Anonymous]When you are young and single going out to happy hours, vacations, nice clothes, decent car is an investment.

on-line shopping, starbucks, restaurant meals unless you are a male on a date are a waste. It serves no purpose.

As long as you keep the 401K up and don't go into debt who cares what you spend if single. When you are married plenty of years to save.

There is a saying you Can't be Young when you are Old.

Fancy vacations, nice car, living in a trendy city, when you are 70 and retired is boring.

When I was broke and 29 and single I bought a used Mercedes convertible that was 18 years old with 110,000 miles. Top down with a wash and wax no one knew the difference and remember I was dating 25- 29 year old girls so what did they know. Had it till I was 34 and go married. Took my wife on first date in it. My wife laughs now as she realizes what a piece of junk it was, our first date car was now 21 year old with like 120K miles, but when she heard for first date I was picking her up in a Mercedes Convertible with top down she bought a new outfit. Now I am a cheapskate and would never pay all the dam maintence and repairs that old car cost me. Live life. [/quote]
