10 Day Challenge // 7 Wants.

1. A new vehicle. I love my Toyota Rav4, but I would like a newer model, maybe a 2012 or 2013.

2. A new job that pays A LOT more money. I like money and want more of it so I am not so frugal all the time. 

3. More motivation to get healthier and in shape. 

4. A vacation to somewhere warm, preferably Hawaii. A two-week vacation would be lovely.

5. To get engaged, married and start a family. I have no set time line for this to happen, it will happen when its meant to, but its definitely something I want! 

6. Travel around Europe for a few months. I have visited Wales before, but would love to explore all over.

7. I would love to be able to purchase our own home. Unfortunately we are in the middle of a housing bubble and prices are ridiculously high. Until the bubble pops and we go into another recession, there is no way my boyfriend and I could afford to buy a home, or an apartment in our hometown.

  2. I NEED any motivation I can get. Warm vacations are awesome! It is SO expensive to buy a home. I hope for us to own our own home one day. More money is always better. You learn some pretty interesting things by being frugal. Have a lovely day.

  6. Saying hey from the 10 Day Challenge. I want more money all the time. No matter how much I have, it's never enough. I'm pretty sure a lot of people have that problem. And I could totally go for a 2 week vacation right about now.

  10. Ugh, I feel you.. I can't even afford to pay rent in Vancouver never mind actually buying a place. I think if there's another recession I am going to scrape my life together to buy.. Because otherwise the chances of my boyfriend and I actually ever getting a place in van are like zero!

    1. It's crazy how expensive it is here.

      My boyfriends sister and parents lives in Alberta. His sister and her family wanted to move to Vancouver, but the cost of living was significantly higher here and the salary they would get was lower. How does that make any sense?

      I think its only a matter of time before things shift in the economy and we are faced with the same housing crisis as the US was. I love watching those first time home owner tv shows - a young couple is looking for a home somewhere in the states, and its this huge house for under $300K - something like that would cost at least $1 million, if not more here.
