[quote user="secondhandmodeler"][quote user="ModelTrainLover"] secondhandmodeler: here are some things I think could help save for a house. limit spendingrecycle bottle/cans if you can. try not to take out a monster sized loan.[/quote]Thanks for the advice.  My wife makes good money, just not enough to bail out my store.  I have a new job lined up making between 35 and 40 thousand a year to start.  We have had to learn to live cheap the past two years.  I haven't taken home a paycheck in over a year.  With the new living configuration, I'm figuring we can save between two and three thousand a month.  That gives me two years to save around fifty thousand dollars.  This may actually be on the low side, but I don't want to be too ambitious.  I already negotiated track-age rights to the second bedroom in the apartment.  I have to share it with the computer and a couch, but at least it's something.  By going broke, we'll actually come out way ahead.  I just have to get through the process.   On a modeling note, I can't wait to be able to plan for larger steamers.  I'm truly fascinated by the war years and the fifties.  I'm thinking a troop train will have to be in the cards.  Anyway, thanks again.[/quote]A E I O U and sometimes Y
