[quote=Anonymous]1.) No daycare bill. We work opposite schedule. 2.) Old cars which seem to run forever. 3.) Cheap insurances since cars are old. 4.) Low property tax bill since we live in condo. 5.) Hardly ever sick. Great eyesight and fix teeth abroad if needed. 6.) Public schools. 7.) No spa/ no manicure/ 1 haircut a year(grows slowly) and even that abroad if we go. 8.) Wear uniform to work and they have free food. 9.) Live close to work and school. 10.) Older kid's expenses paid 50% by ex. 11.) 1 mortgage paid by renter. 12.) Free parking since we work in the same zone and free at DH work. We earn some cash back, but it's small. Don't cut coupons since I know rock bottom prices and buy usually then. No new clothes since closet is full of clothes and we hardly ever got to an event that requires nice clothes. We spend money on traveling and books ($1a piece in thrift) and 529s. One of the mortgages will be paid soon. Then we will upgrade and have 3 people pay for the house. I think the best thing is that we don't know any Joneses. Nobody to impress.[/quote]
