[quote=Anonymous]People grow up with a certain standard of living and they don’t think twice about having the thing or service that they grew up having, because they think it’s a basic necessity. For example, cable TV. You don’t need cable TV anymore. But a lot of folks still subscribe to it… and they also subscribe to many of the streaming services (Netflix, Disney, Amazon, Hulu, etc.). The costs just keep adding up but they don’t think it’s possible to cut back because they think they need it all. There are a lot of things that my family does not have that both my DH and I grew up with. But we are okay with that. We question every purchase, and as a result, we can comfortably retire early with kids still in school.[/quote]
