Mv, I think it depends on the way you plan on approaching this endeavor.
Exactly. The budgeting I just did is for "one and done". Inevitably everyone winds up somewhere down the line wanting more. The smart thing is to see this coming early on. Then if you find something you really love, or come across a killer deal, or anything that seems worth the stretch long term, then of course you can go for that and consider it an "anchor" or Grail piece. But that is Budgeting 201. I thought we were doing Budgeting 101 for fun.
