Thanks Guys!

Thanks for all of your support, I guess this blog will be focused on me building up my savings to afford said house, and I get a small "discount" from work if I were to get a mortgage through them. In the mean time though I guess I have to work work work and then wait for my tax return just to do it all over again!

So far I'm not even close to building my savings up, though I am keeping about 15% of my paycheck in my savings account at all times. Maybe once I get a decent amount I'll put it in a CD account or something. Shame the rates suck right now though, ugh.

In the mean time though, what's a good color to paint my apartment?

I want a house you guys

I did just recently move into a two bedroom apartment and it's slightly bigger than my last place, but the more I look at it I realize that renting just might not be for me, I wouldn't mind applying that rent to a mortgage instead.

I bet the feeling of "owning" is great, despite the fact that you have to pay for property taxes, home insurance, fire insurance all other types of things.

Granted there are a lot of crazy things going on such as foreclosures and debt consolidation and I don't even know what it all means! I just want to buy a house but not get into any debt of some sort. Help, I am conflicted!
