[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our house looks great AND our 401ks do too. You do not need a lot of money or to hire an expensive decorator to have a house that's well put together. [/quote] Not to mention you live in your home now, and while it's important to save for the future, you might also die and never use that retirement money. Balance in everything. We hired an interior decorator when we moved in to our new place. We can't afford to do 80% of what she recommended right now, but we at least have a concept and a plan for what we want to do -- a big picture, if you will, so we don't 1) do things haphardly and 2) start living with things we really don't want (and a lot of people do this). She also helped pick out things like paint color -- a scheme for the whole house, and new light fixtures (we had awful builders grade circa 1983 throughout the house) I think all in all it's a good choice. We'll have understated beauty befitting the house itself, but nothing cookie cutter or over-the-top[/quote]
