I never would have guessed that our quality of life (no money stress, etc.) would have improved so much.

It's put us on a much better financial footing and is allowing us to do things we couldn't afford to do before-- sock away more for retirement, travel more, live debt-free etc.
What state did you move if I may ask and what line of work ? Thx for the reply
