It is nice knowing that I can afford almost anything that I want. But all I really want is my DH and my puppy, Holly. And, my one big vice, eating out!
You payed off your house at age 32, and never made more than 200 a week??
How is that even possible? Even if you paid that entire 200/week to a mortgage of 100,000, it would take you 9.6 years to pay it off. And I'm sure you didnt. What gives?
