To me it's much like owning a car - I could probably do without one but I find it is worth the extra cost!<br /><br />How do you think about it?90 million bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15670473943021452138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3359808312138659853.post-85584595759960683402012-09-28T00:41:16.412+10:002012-09-28T00:41:16.412+10:00Decent post, plenty to ponder about this one.

I'm quite young myself & if I continue to try & build wealth I can see this being a potential issue (given that I currently live in a working class western suburbs area). <br />A question I have from this post (feel free not to answer) I was wondering how your financial objectives affect your ability to commit to a relationship or find like minded partners? (I understand this is a personal one that you may not want to or feel comfortable answering). <br />CheersAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04127317235015493025noreply@blogger.com
