Its pretty scary really but i feel it is the best decision for the family. Life has been pretty cushy until now and im a little nervous about tightening the belt.:(
My collecting's probably going to suffer unfortunately too- not taking this concept very well...:(
yeah im not look forward to that aspect either when i decide to move out wont have the money to burn on cars, comics and transformers :(Quote:

The best way to do that is probably by leaving some financial leverage left aside so you have something to fall on if things become difficult.Quote:

It's much easier if you have a dual income as you can support one another but it is very difficult or impossible to do it on a medium single wage income without sacrificing your way of life for many years (decades).
I am single and intend on remaining single for the rest of my life so to me getting a mortgage equals to a giant ball and chain. I am the type who believes in 'work to live' but a mortgage on a single income would make me into a 'live to work' kinda guy.
I feel exactly the same! I'm looking to purchase an apartment and that means locking myself into a mortgage and which means less TF's. Its rather frightening thinking that I may lose some of my financial freedom once I take on a mortgage.Quote:

Get them to throw that in! That's an excellent TF sighting!Quote:

We all eventually have to give it up. Its inevitable. We'll get over it! Because it will be for the right cause.Quote:

And now 7 years later, the money I make from it goes towards paying it off and allows me a little extra to pay for my hobby now. Short term loss, long term gains. :cool:
