I am 45 so prob older than most mumsnetters but have young kids age 4 and 6. Dh and we disagree on spending. I want to spend on holidays, he want to pay off mortgage. He overpays £1000 a month - yes that is overpays - total payment about £1400. Admittedly the plan is to pay it off BEFORE we retire - but i think life in for living and we should go away with it now and worry abut mortgage long term.
incidentally one of the reasons he thinks over paying is the best thing is that we CANNOT go away for longer then a week due to family commitments. DH reckons get the mortgage paid off and in the future when family situation changes we can do month tours of Thailand etc. I think why wait - kids are not young forever 'life is what happens when you are making other plans'
Who is unreasonable me or him?
