What happens if you and your partner have slightly different views on saving and getting out of debt.
My husband thinks in the now. I tend to think for the future. I am thinking if we are strict we can be debt free in one year. While we are doing this we have to be frugal. Then we can do whatever we want.
My husband loves going away. After we went skiing this weekend I looked at out bank balances and we had spent more than what I had thought. My husband thinks its ok to take out money from savings to do things like this and I don’t.
I feel right now we will never be debt free if we continuously have to take out money from savings to pay for little trips.
I can’t argue too much as he is the principal income earner. I just want to be debt free.
