annual argument. do we or do we not go on holiday? my wife says no because we have no savings to save us. i say you only live once and we work hard and whats the point if you cant go on holiday. the

things about money but have different ideas of what its for.” he explains. “theyll say its to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them.” he says men are more likely to
