You never get time back, but you can always earn more!!! That said, it's also fun to watch debt decline, net worth grow, and get good stuff at cheap prices!

My husband almost put off going to graduate school since it would put some of our savings goals on hold. When he mentioned this to me since I'm the uber-cheap one, I told him that he hated his job and putting off graduate school was silly...he wasn't expecting that. :-) He'll be graduating this summer and hopefully have a new job as a school librarian this fall (he's applying and waiting now). I'm so proud of him and it was totally worth it. So true.
