​Keeping the Other Half Motivated to Save - March 2016

​I've been following a budget for eight years now. When my husband and I purchased our house at 22 years old in Sydney we needed to be smart with our money if we wanted to make it work. Month in month out we stuck to it. We have since been able to travel overseas annually and I've been able to be a stay at home mum with our two children 2 and 4. We have renovated our house and own our car, owe nothing on credit cards and always up to date with bills and mortgage (ahead by approximately 10 years). My tip is in our case when my husband may say "spaghetti again" I'll just give him a happy reminder that "Europe next year is going to be amazing" or "isn't it great we don't stress about meals and bills". It works every time.
