Martin's Advice

Posts: 177 Forumite
I just had a call at the door from one of those companies that sell photographs of your house taken from a plane. The one they had of our house was lovely - the garden looks great, the sun is shining. "£45", she said.
I asked myself "Do I need this?". No.
I asked myself "Can I afford this?". No.
Then I asked myself, "but do I really really really want it ?" Yes.
So I bought it.
(so what do we do if we really really really want it Martin? I hope that's in the next book)

You should have listened to the Jeremy Vine show today! It was about haggling!

I quit betfair 1 week ago and feel better already-gambling and saving are two distinct opposites.0
