no bills

I would go through and change the things in the home that I really didn't care for.Maybe paint the walls different colors.Dress up the kitchen.Get new curtains to go with each room.get new decor. I don't know maybe fix me a patio out back and put in a grill and maybe a pool.There are alot of things that you could do with the extra money.Or just put it in savings for a rainy day.

I have done that! - the answer to the question: what would you do if you had no mortgage or debts? - you begin to live! you ask yourself - what is it that i really want from life? what is my potential? what is it that i want to leave behinfd as my legacy to others, when i am no longer here? what do i want to be remembered for? why have i lived? finding these anwsweres is the most wonderful period in your life. it means freedom to be you.

what di i do to pay off opur mortgage? i became serious about understanding the difference between what i needed and what i wanted. when i wanted icecream - i asked myself: what nutritional value does it have? can i do without? - and the cost of icecream went into the loan repayment. i decided only to eat nutritions foods, cut out sweets, cut out restaurants (i am a very good cook), invested an a big TV and organised home entertainment in a delicious way that beats going out hands down. and lots of other things. just turned my life around to see what really has value, and deserves MY MONEY. it was a big eye opener - and my life feels worth so much more now, that i am not a slae to fashion or trends.
