Do you know how much in savings or inheritances they have?

I thought it was Double Income No Kids. And "DINKDOs" are...

"Double" would indicate that they make twice what others do, and isn't accurate,

One of my employees buys a new car every couple years. Between she and her husband, their car payments are around $1400

Yeah, I love my cars, but I'm under $400/month and think that's a bit much. I just finished paying off my truck,

Delay retirement for a TT?

Not only that it seems like he gets a brand new car every single year. Went from a Hellcat to a Ford Focus RS

People sometimes make condescending remarks about the fact that we travel a lot

And if you did blow your money on travel who cares? People need to butt out.

Yep. Everybody has different priorities

So long as responsible spenders aren't on the hook for retirement etc then

This happens to me as well. We travel a fair amount with our entire family

Disagree. I love to sit back and evaluate how others live their life.

Liking it doesn't make it a good practice. Heck, I love ice cream every day but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.

soupie

Once again. Disgaree. Liking or even loving it makes it a necessity.

Would it change your opinion if you knew she was a Russian immigrant?

Dillinger

10/16/17 10:45am

In no way whatsoever. Why would that even matter?

soupie

Because shes a fake american

That makes it 10 times more interesting. Where did she get the money? Was her daddy a rich KGB officer? Ties to

I find 90% of people and 100% of Hodor's use that as an excuse for dumb habits;)

$2k over the life of the loan is a worthwhile premium for flexibility IMO.
