Warren, that’s great advice. Living within your means is really important. You might want a bigger house, but the extra costs may not be worth it. Thanks for posting.

Buy what you need – NOT what your want.

I totally agree with you. I don’t understand why people buy big big houses when they never use all the rooms of the house? Can’t 2 children share a single room? People should buy small homes and save their money for the retirement or children education or for their own. I know some people who want to show off by buying everything expensive. I always think that if both husband and wife earn, then the mortgage amount, expenses should be covered with one persons salary so that the other persons salary can be saved for retirement or kids education or for something what you need.
