I could continue post-tax savings for a Doomsday/Emergency fund, but I probably won't once the dental bill is paid.

I guess I'm not clear on the blog maybe. I guess this is one way to increase your cash flow. 6) I’d stop my retirement contributions completely, which I am doing now and it’s working. Save $500-800 a month. I’m curious why would you scale down your retirement contributions? I guess I’m not clear on the blog maybe. I guess this is one way to increase your cash flow.

That place is full of adorable things that tempt me. Thus far, I've been able to resist, but mostly by not visiting it that often.
