[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get what you are saying and feel the same way. I just said to my husband last night that this is the first year I feel like we are starting to be more secure financially. That said, if you have the cash make sure you are doing home maintenance (assuming you own) and have a safe car. You also should dress/look your position at work.[/quote] +1 Definitely keep up on maintenance costs. Can get very expensive if you do not. That said, the recession changed us permanently too. We will never live in a home that takes two salaries to afford. (That's what saved us in 2009.) We are also working on paying down some major health care bills, and once those our gone, the credit cards will hit the mothballs. The car is already paid off. Won't get another one for at least a decade since we mostly take the bus. Moving to an all-cash lifestyle as soon as it's possible.[/quote]
