Less is More
We're considering making a HUGE change. We're ready to move. We've been ready to move, especially me. I don't feel safe in our appartment, our landlord is a douche bag and the incovieniences in our appartment just get more and more annoying. So, here is what were thinking: One bedroom apartment. We can get a nice onebedroom in midtown for less than $800. We wont be nearly as comfortable spacially, but the savings every month would make a HUGE difference in our finances. A smaller place with lower rent would rapidly speed up paying off our debt. It would also give us some breathing room in case the car breaks or I wrack up another $1000 in medical/dental expenses. =p All in all, if we can handle living without and office, which we think we can, life will be a whole lot more comfortable and we'll be moving closer to the life we're aiming for at a much faster rate. I've already got a call in to look at a place in an excellent location. We'll see how that pans out.
Cross your fingers for us. This could be a really, really good thing.
