Immigrant I would like to ask you a very personal question. You do not have to answer.
How much of what you own(toys and vehicles) do you buy cash or are they debt?

No problem ChrisL. I can truthfully and proudly and gratefully say I that all my toys, boat, vehicles and motorbikes are debt free. My farm is also debt free! My house was paid off but we took out a loan (2.5%) to pay for the renovations, but it should be paid off by the end of the year.
I am extremely fortunate that I can pretty much work as much as I want at my job. I get $1050 per overtime shift of 12 hours. Because we work 5 days on, 5 days off, there is lots of opportunity to work extra. and the farm bring in some money as well. So it's not too bad to "budget for toys".
We fortunatley also have more disposable income. Health care is free, school is free, and no monthly armed response.

Ek is baie dankbaar daarvoor ChrisL. Rerig baie gelukkig en dankbaar. Het letterlik met my gat in die botter geval. Die ergste is as ek op vakansie is, want ek moet nee dankie se as hulle bel. Elke keer as ek die foon neersit lose ek $$. Maar n mens moet iewers die lyn trek. Ek sal eerder nou tyd met die kinders spandeer terwyl hulle nog dink ek is "cool". Een van die dae is hulle te besig vir my

Wyse man, tyd met hulle nou is onvervangbaar en as dit eers verby is kry jy dit nie terug!
Geld kan dit nie terugkoop.
Geniet, wees laf saammet hulle!

I see in your first pic you listened when I said be crazy with the kids.

Those are special times!
Enjoy, mine are all grown up, but I can remember horsing around with them in the tidal pool.
Great memories brought back, thanks!
