<p>[QUOTE="canadianredneck, post: 3943004, member: 91347"]I started with a 5k truck, 5k for expenses and was rolling.

I moved here, I think that made a huge difference, we (my wonderful, understanding, gypsy, retired military wife) rented the house out, downsized and moved. It was TOUGH. We used to live within hours of 3 of the 5 kids and 4 of our grandkids. It takes sacrifice.</p><p> To ones that do and are willing, it pays off in spades.
