This is a good series, but I can't agree with some of your suggestions, such as giving up a car. Not all of us live in a city where public transportation is reliable. I do, however live in a city where we have public transportation, but it is very slow and I'd lose around 2 hours out of my day taking it. Then you have to start weighing money vs time with family? It makes it really hard. I do agree that you should pay your mortgage or rent (not all of us own homes yet) first. You definately want to have a place to live.
