Lifes Like That

As you all know, we have an ongoing project going on in our home. Yes, the dreaded renovations! It has taken us a lot more time and money that I had originally thought it would to get all these projects completed. When we were re-doing the bathroom, I couldn’t believe how much new bathroom vanities cost. Thankfully for me, my husband has a great eye and is one of those people who can spot a deal a mile away. If it wasn’t for his sense of money, I know we would have ended up paying a lot more for items than we really needed to. So hopefully with the renovation continuations, his sale eye will still be working and we won’t be in the poor house when were finally finished everything we want to do.

Last night I was watching a show on TV about a couple who were wanting to purchase a vacation home. They already had a beautiful home that they lived in year round, but they were looking at purchasing some real estate in an exotic location for a summer home. It really got me to wondering how in the world would they do this? How would they be able to afford to carry two hefty mortgages. I know this isn’t the only couple of the face of this earth that carry two mortgages. But I have to wonder where in the world do they get the money for this type of purchase. My husband and I just get by in life with one mortgage and all the other bills that come with living. I would have now idea how to go about dropping this added expense into the picture.
