[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: The examples you mention would be hard for me, as well. Here are 2 observations: [b]Typically, home improvements bring back a substantial return on investment.[/b] I’m older and I wish one of us was frugal. Trust me when I say, you will be very happy when you’re older. [/quote] FWIW that's actually not true. There was a study I read a while back and IIRC the most "valuable" home improvement was a new front door or something and it returned like $0.84 per dollar invested. The study went down the line listed out other improvements and the typical return per dollar invested. That's not to say that consumption spending for the house should be off the table but to recognize that it is consumption rather than an investment. OP how is your husband with respect to other spending like going on vacations?[/quote]
