Transportation is the big one. The biggest wasters you'll find in most peoples budgets are cars. The author put everything into a van. Go the opposite direction. Pull every dollar you can away from your car. Have no car if you can get away with it. Or only one car instead of two in a family setting. Consider the TCO of any car you buy. A lot of people say 'buy used' but IMHO it's more important to buy less car.
- abakker 10y agoThis is true, and relevant as long as a) you don't need to commute by car (or you have all the time in the world to manage convoluted public transit) and b) you can rely on that same public transit for all the errands you will need to do. For people outside of select cities, these are far from given in the USA.
