I'm not really interested with keeping up with the Joneses.

Dont get me wrong, I have nothing against the Jonses, its just that I dont care about what they want. If they want a pool and I don't want a pool, well thats just how it is.

I used to wonder how people in our neighborhood managed to afford all the nice fancy stuff they were buying then during the time of the 90s crash, their cars and houses were all being repossessed.
We were able to weather through that time because before, we lived conservatively and saved money.
My kids didn't get fancy new bikes and cars like their friends but they still had a house to live in when the economy took a shit.

And once you don't care about the Jone's, life becomes so much easier. Good call.

@Ynotisay Nope, life is as difficult as ever for me. Must be honest.

@Nothinginparticular Well, you have eliminated something that drives most people. So your hard situation would be made worse if you were hyper-focused on keeping with the Jones's.

@Ynotisay Yeah, imagine I had that on my plate as well!

Pools are very expensive to maintain.......I have 2 friends that have pools and their sitting empty now.......

@Jimmy2016 a pool would be nice, but I'd need a heated indoor pool. I cant handle the cold, nor the sun. I hope the Joneses dont have a heated indoor pool.
