I am 52 with DS28, DS26 - about to make me a grandmother:j DD21 at uni. Have been OS out of necessity for most of my life. However this forum has helped me discover even more ways of stretching my money which has literally been a house saver recently. My colleagues assume that my lifestyle is down to my ecological stance - no car, no foreign holidays, second hand/homemade clothes, vegan food etc but I am determined to hang on to the family home for as long as it is needed.True wealth lies in contentment - not cash.
