Day 2 -We decided by the location, where was most convenient for us. But also the most cost
efficient.

Day 3 -The most important was within our budget. The least important is the looks.

Day 4 -We chose insurance by the most efficient for less. We want more coverage to stay safe,
but we also want to save money.

Day 5 -Were not big on brand names. We looked for things that were suitable for our budget.

Day 6 - We learned that when you grow up, you have a lot of responsibilities. You have to pay
your bills and help support your family while hoping for a decent amount left over. We had to
work together to budget to fit our lives.
