Good for you Marilyn, i am the same way, i'm fixing up my old house, to increase the value of it, so sometime in the future i can use that money for a bigger house, but not until i have saved 20% down for a new house, i do have a savings account which i put 200.00 away every month plus my bonuses that i get at work and all are tax returns now go into this account that is my dream one day to have a nice brick ranch home, with a two car garage. But one day... when i have the funds for it.. and with the sale of my house a big chunck of that will go straight on the principle of the new house.. my sister always told me never take a morgage out for 30 years always 15 years... she is so right about that one.. so i can wait for my dream house.
As for the Government passing the bill, i really think they screwed up on that one, they just made the rich richer, and us the middle class workers are going to pay dearly, there going to start taxes the crap out of us, like were not taxed enough already.. But who do you think is going to have to repay this dept. We are!!! I think it's going to be an ugly Christmas for alot of us working class and small business owners, just wait the taxes are coming and there going to start raising prices on everything..food, gas, etc, So sad...
