I think this is the key to your success. Far too many people want all the stuff but aren't willing to make the sacrifices necessary to get it. So they end up overextended in debt up to their eyeballs.

You ran the numbers and made sure you could afford the deal you were getting involved in. I think that's great. If everyone did that, we'd see far fewer stories about the mountain of debt Americans are buried under.
