Living in the Lap of Luxury?


We all like to treat ourselves to nice things once in a while, but that doesn’t mean we can afford to live in the lap of luxury all the time.

Take for example living in a luxury apartment.

Sure it’s nice to have some of those amenities: a jacuzzi tub, granite counter tops, maybe even a covered patio area, but do you really need to live somewhere so nice?

What if you could use that money for something else instead?

Here’s another interesting infographic from ForRent.com that shows some other ways you could use that money instead, including paying for a gym membership, going out to eat more often, and spending more money on relaxation techniques, like getting a regular massage.

Ahh! Now that sounds like the life!
