      Please learn to do repairs and improvement yourself. It’s very rewarding and saves tens of thousands of dollars. Since I bought a house I’ve learned so much about plumbing, electricity, roofing, and everything.

      There’s so much DIY information out there that there’s no reason not to.

        Then quit your job to get the time for all those money saving activities.

      Those 90s are not that long time ago. Having your own home is such a benefit it’s hard to explain. With owning your own home, there will always be something to repair and require money but take your time and prioritize things and you are golden.
