Eventually, both cars are paid off, and then the credit card debt is reduced with transfering the balance to cards with lower rates. +4,000

Both people get nominal rasies at work of about 2%. +4,000

They get new cell phone an dland line contracts which cut phone bills. +200

As they get older, auto insurance rates drop slightly. +200

House fills up with clothes, knick-nacks, etc. Buying slows. +500

So about 2-3 years later, they will actually start adding to liquid net worth (non-house) at initially slow but later increasing rates.

Some of the savings is tax sheltered, in IRAs, 4o1k, etc.

Some will be company stock purchases at 15% discounts.
