Sacrifices that involved working 7 days a week months on end at an off the farm job. Just to pay the mortgage down a year earlier.

No $20k vacations to far off lands.

One realized she was a subdivision type girl.
The other will probably find an older someone well off to take care of her that has already put in all the hard work.



Jay I have quite the reverse. Partners who don't want to put in the work to get the said homestead paradise. When I am all in and end up being left with all the said work. Think it might be a personality thing. Some of us are all in.....some of us never will be no matter what.
