So you said yes to DF ? (Please consider if you need a prenup and remember 'i can trust him' is a very bad reason not to)Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!5 -

I received a love spoon and a proposal for Valentines so it is probably time to stop oscillating about DF (dear fiancee) 🙂
me three on the Watty comment.DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff. Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.
