Re: Is it all worth it?
27 now. Bought a house earlier this year. Mortgage is less than my rent, and I'm continuing to find ways to keep my expenses down. My goal was to have monthly expenses that I can manage comfortably on 10-20% less of my income. I can manage my expenses on about 15% less than what I make now. So there's some success.

Re: Is it all worth it?
Still closer to 50 than 30 , still driving my same car (162,000 miles now; she's showing some rust but she still runs just fine), and once again I'm living in a place that's within 8-15 minutes' walk of everything I need AND is near a major bus line that gets me to work and a lot of other places besides. I confess that I probably could have gotten a smaller place and saved a few hundred dollars a month, but after 9 years of living on the kind of wages I was making in the mid-late 80s I went a little bit nuts. I'm furnishing a little at a time...consignment and thrift stores are my new BFFs...
Hello, 2021. Glad to see you. Hope you're bringing us goodness and light this year!
