MH>Planning in advance is great, provided life doesn't throw you any curve ball
MH>My previous home would have been paid off last year.

True, Than the True mesure of the MAN is how he handles it. Yuo can
snvel in a corner and have a pity party or pick yourself up and start
over with the saem dedication that you had the first time.


MH>I keep cars forever.  When I buy a new car, I keep it.

I have owned Two New cars, a 1956 Buick and then a 1960 Ford
Falcon
Didn't learn the lesson the first tiem that buying New is Treminally
STUPID and like throwing your money down the toilet.
There are just to many low mieldge 1 or 2 year old cars out there.

In my case money was so tight with our plan that I had to go for
higher miledge vehicles. On example was after the Audi 5000 sudden
acelleration fiasco the price dropped like a rock on the Used Market.
I went for those a couple of times. They were excelent vehicles at a
very low price. And since I was not a total IDIOT like the drivers
that stepped on the acellerator instead of the brake pedal I had no
probems.
