diesel,
Well we didn't build our own house but we managed to pay off the mortgage in 8 + 1/2 years instead of 25 which allowed my wife to stop working full time at 40 and me to take an early retirement way ahead of time.
Courtesy of living debt free our basic living expenses probably fall below the poverty line..... which allows us to treat ouselves to luxuries pretty much any time we want to like you I have no use for debt.
I see the people living from check to check and wonder how they do it.....
That’s for sure, almost everyone I know is deep in debt. Last year I bought a five acre piece of property one door down from my home, my Albin boat and brand new trailer, as well as a brand new Jeep Wrangler (needed four doors now with baby and a 14 year old) and did it all with cash. Jeep dealer was shocked I paid cash! He told me, that’s unamerican!!! Lol
That’s awesome you and your wife could retire early! That’s my plan, about eight years to go.
