we bought less than we could afford. i enjoy going out for dinner, buying a book, or into a horse, having ready cash to go have fun, more than making payments on things that you then can't afford to have fun with. and it's lucky for us that we do that--my husband has been off work since june 1 with a broken heel, and is on short term disability that pays half his usual check. but we're still kicking along, no sweat!
