My husband and I bought a house on an acreage about four years ago. We were finally able to do this after being together for 28 years of paying rent. We have three children and we are guardians for three grandchildren, so we don’t have very much money for renovations. Right now we are working on the basement which is at the dirt floor stage. We need the room for them as we only have three bedrooms on the main level- three children are sharing our den which we are using as a temporary bedroom. Our wish is to have enough money to finish our basement so that our children can have their own space.

My wife and I have been married for nearly 3 years now and we thought that by staying in our rent house for a couple years we would be able to save enough to buy a house. Alas, we weren’t counting on the economy taking a dive. I own a small business and took a pretty hard hit, sometimes going 2-3 months with no paycheck. We struggled a lot and we’re not “out of the woods yet” but we survived. Mostly, we have God and each other.

She’s the best wife for which I could have ever asked. She works too at a hospital and drives over an hour (one way) to Dallas. It breaks my heart because I work from home and it pains me to watch her drive away. She deserves way more than I can give her right now and what I’d like most of all is to give her a great house. A place of our own, in a nice neighborhood, that we can call home and raise a family. A place closer to the Dallas metroplex so we can reduce the wear and tear on our cars.

If this is a web site to unleash our dreams… guilt free then I want to give her a house that is valued between $400,00 – $800,000.

She is a wonderful woman and I want this more than anything right now. Simply a safe place to call home.

Our company has a ‘casual’ dress code – most people come in jeans and tees. I want to fit in but look smart somehow, oh, and Im also broke – any ideas?

It is the camera that I want desperately to have so that I can get my long dream of photography career up and running.

The problem being I’d have to sell a kidney to get one, and I really find my kidney to be useful.

But first I need a bigger place – and maybe a responsibility check! (So many Wants).

Every boy’s dream and within every man is the boy who was desperate to look up some chick’s skirt. I blame Superman.

By far ‘one’ of my dream cars. And hey, if it’s good enough for Bond, it’s good enough for me!

This is just so cool it hurts. This is a real hotel too. Google it, “underwater lair”. Awesome.

It doesn’t have to be flash, just look a bit classy. I had a mate at work who had an old Merc and the front and back windows went down together and it looked great. You couldn’t lock the passenger door but it was still great. I want this.

How cool is this? I want it, I want it, I want it.
