quote:We do this, just not at our home because of how far out we live. I also prefer to go out because well friends have kids and kids make a less enjoyable experience for me. I don't have them, want them, and like to hang out with friends away from kids.
.there is plenty of fun to be had, entertaining at home (or cooperatively with friends at their homes)
quote:Plenty of that to do, which is why I budget travel expenses every month as well
and living a very full life of awesome experiences.
quote:Travel, going out, theater, museums, sporting events all cost money and all things I enjoy. Might not be for everyone but it is for me.
Your quality of life & level of enjoyment should not be determined by your spending level
quote:Nope, but it is usually the case. No matter what you are still looking at paying for gas, beverages, etc. While not as much as say going to the Chimes and sitting out having a few beers, it still does cost something.
Having fun without spending lots of money does not equal staying home.
quote:I already have, I can pay it off earlier if I decide to cut back. I can also pay it off at my current rate relatively soon as well.
Sit down and do the math on how many hours of your life will be devoted to paying it off. The faster you pay it off, the better your quality of life will be.
I'm not advocating the stay at home, live like a hermit approach, that some are. I think a person can pay off debt without changing the things they enjoy as long as they're smart about their choices.
