How I Will Save This Week and How it Will Impact Me Little Now and a Lot Later O

1. Milk will be my only grocery purchase.
2. I will not eat out this week.
3. I will "smuggle" some money from my chequing account into my Mortgage Prepayment Account. I will try for at least $50.

I've decided that I can pay my mortgage off in ten years even though I'm working parttime. I will make it into a game.

I plan to do more of my own cooking, and less eating out.

And then, as a 50th birthday present to myself in a little over 12 years, I will buy a cottage on the water. I can do it.

The funny thing is that I appreciate the eating out more when it happens less often. But yes, Ray. You are right. It's important to enjoy life.
