hey don't disgrace yourself...
well... u or ur partner may come from rich families or get $ from parents or save a big chunk of $ before coming to Van... coz i really think it's quite hard for ordinary couple (both working) to save up & buy a house nowaday in Van without sacraficing living standard or luxurious spending....
In our story, we started with a $3XK debt in 2006 (student loans! )... that's why i said the system works effectively...

nthe receipts & I record all our spending & put it in excel & every half month we both sit down & see see what we spend...
LOL
me & my hubby used to do that too...
but we quit doing it long time ago...hahahhaha
i'm kinda like Sazabi, i admit i'm a big spender & likes to 買花帶
but even so, i much enjoy the feeling when i buy it for myself, rather than my hubby buying it for me. in the past, i've gotten some ridiculous monetary-related offers from my chasers. but i never accepted any. funny things is, when i think back, i feel so stupid for rejecting it. but if i got a chance to choose again, i'm not 100% sure if i would accept those offers. such contradiction...haha
I was never a big spender for luxurious goods (like handbag, clothes, home entertainment sys...), but since my honey & I both like travel alot ("FREE-walker" who will NEVER joing those duckie tour! & spend at least 1 week for a single city), we spend $ on vacation ...
Beside, although those items can be used for daily life, I prefer spending $ on holidays with my loved ones & create some quality life-lasting sweet memories... I suggest lovers do it too!!! coz whenever I look at the scapebook of our travel dairy & pix... OMG i'm just sooo glad that we have such a great time!
