Looking for some advice on how to handle this situation… My boyfriend of 10+ months is divorced (6 years total) with 3 kids. He has a very amicable relationship with his ex. Two of his 3 kids have birthdays 5 days apart coming up next month. In lieu of a party, they asked for a weekend at a hotel/indoor water park. They have done this in the past. However, he asked how I felt about him sharing a room with his ex and kids, with separate beds. Continued…

My wife got a job that requires us to relocate to San Diego. We have never lived there and know little about the city. We are planning to rent. We stayed in a hotel in little Italy and really loved the vibe there, but it’s too expensive for us. Are there other neighborhoods with similar vibes - restaurants, bars, lively, good for walking, clean, safe, young, diverse and accessible that are more affordable? Please share recommendations. How much should we reasonably budget to rent a 2bd/2bath?

I have a sort of stupid question. Internet trolls, please refrain from stampeding me if you can. My question— at what point do you spend your money? I am such a saver. I save and save and save. Even if I do a big trip or buy something big for the house, I still do it from my income/not my savings. When are you guys spending out of savings? I feel like I’ve brainwashed myself a bit and I’m going to be 90 years old still squirreling money away and not using it.
