[quote=Anonymous]I suspect the OP got 2 newish cars because the ones they had was really high in mileage, and simply ran it's course. The other theory is they got new cars when kids came into the picture. I do agree with the person that said they shoudl have got a mini van to begin with, and especially with the gas prices today. As others said, bring your lunch in. I see people eat out every day, usually fast food. 10 years ago, most meals would be $5. Now, they are closer to $10. I go out one day a week for lunch, otherwise, I bring mine in and make multiple meals out of one thing. Yeah, 285K is a lot of money for this area, and the other thing the OP can do is download Quicken or Microsoft Money, download all your transactions from your bank for the last year (or two) and categorize everything. Yes, this will take a few hours. Then, look at your spending, you will probably find other ways to cut corners. [/quote]
