He had a hard time listening to all the victims' impact statements and I think by his comments he finally gets the enormity of his dispicable behaviour.

Actually our home was paid off many moons ago but of course having to buy the ex out of the house after the divorce I ended up with a new mortgage at age 53. But it has been so worth it cutting back pretty hard on the non-important stuff. I still travel because that is what "floats my boat" but all the unimportant stuff was slashed and it is (obviously) so worth it. Oddly enough one of the biggest money savers has been not buying breakfast, lunch, coffee etc. at work. The savings there are just amazing.Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-21067729022652880142018-01-26T18:26:26.296+00:002018-01-26T18:26:26.296+00:00I was happy to see Nasser's trial results also...I was happy to see Nasser's trial results also, but was mostly proud of the young women who faced him in the trial and told him and the court what a POS he was. <br />Congratulations on the mortgage situation!

I am sure if people could actually see the difference overpaying would make they would do it too. Being mortgage free is a wonderful thing. We have had it happen twice, once when we paid off our small bungalow, then we upsized and got a bigger home which we had a line of credit for instead of a mortgage. We paid that off quickly as hubby was on straight commission at the time and we threw every single cent to it that didn't go to other bills. When we moved here we sold the big house and bought this with cash and bought a second property where my Mom lives. Both have increased in value so a good idea a the time, much more than the stock market. Cheapchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158208632054014311noreply@blogger.com
