Also, when I was first having a kid and everyone was like “ooooh, they’re expensive” I was all, well, there’s some cost to the one off purchases, but not thaaat bad. But then I realised kind of after having them that it’s the cost of them curtailing your ability to earn by having to cut down hours and maternity, and all that shit. That costs you THOUSANDS!!

Now that I am simultaneously planning a wedding and planning a major building project I’ve discovered that the problem of what to do with spare money is surprisingly easily solved.

I can see xylo as an evil slum landlord? Have you considered that?

I’ve opted for the “yeah fuck it” approach. I reason people will stop asking for money once I’m either married or broke, depending on which comes first.

Get yourself ordained and start doing weddings in the summer under your pergola :moneybag:

Might make a spreadsheet that quantifies how much an overpayment represents in time shaved off the mortgage to try and motivate me. Not sure how fussed I am, might even extend my mortgage term next time so I can reduce my working hours again, rather have the free time now rather than when I’m old.

Currently living beyond my means, was debt free for my mortgage in July, now £2k in credit card and overdraft debt, and I’m planning to borrow loads to do the necessary soundproofing

A few years ago I was feeling pretty flush and contacted my mortgage provider because I wanted to bung a few hundred pounds a month on it. Figured it was the best use of my money. Bank convinced me to lower the term of my mortgage instead and were all ‘yeah we can do it over the phone now, it’s really easy and won’t cost you a thing’. Fast forward a few months, I’ve been made redundant, unemployed and then on a salary where I can’t afford to be overpaying. Call up the bank to change it back and they’re all ‘oh no no no, you’ll have to go through a full mortgage application all over over again and pay a new £1000 free to do that!’. :rage::rage::rage::rage::rage::rage::rage:
