took us nearly 17 years to pay off wife's student loans. luckily i dropped out early due to loose women and fast party's. we pay 1/2 our income on our house. its too much for what it is, but i like it. my honda civic takes up another good chunk of change.
never had a credit card but do have a debit card. was raised by german/dutch parent and debt was worse then poverty. so i am poor and ok with it.. you think i look like a nerd and drink cheap beer, well go fnck your self as saint paul would say..
