[quote=bearishgurl]My car is a ’94 which I purchased from a private party for cash in ’99. I just bought yet another set of tires (+ alignment) for it and fixed a longstanding transaxle leak. It’s ready to roll for another long road trip!![/quote]
That’s great bearishgurl! I’m sure you apply the same philosophy to other aspects of your financial life as well. People like you always have a financial cushion, and achieve financial independence while still young.
There’s nothing like the peace of mind of knowing that you go to work in the morning b/c you want to, not because you have to.

The article demonizes him for being “cheap.” (Though I would think that roof would pose some serious inconvenience–rain coming in, etc)
