[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 1059532, member: 1944"] We live in a summer cottage we have been upgrading. We had no debt til he got sick. Even with great insurance, we racked up 20k, from me needing time off, and using the credit card to do it. Im happy I had it. We will be debt free in 1 yr. We went from 2 incomes to one overnight. We had two truck/car payments, and separate credit obligations. We have survived, and if I live long enough to keep working we will thrive again. There are many ways to cut expenses, we have done it all. Mostly we buy what we used to go out and pay 4xs as much for. Such as lobster and crab, etc, at the store instead of a restaurant. Thrift stores, Goodwill are my friends, and even if I didnt need to I still would. I cant remember the last time I bought anything new. We still have 2 trucks, one has 297000 on it, but it still runs and looks good. I wouldnt change a thing, except I wish we had learned to live this way before and he was still good as new. [/QUOTE]
