(I mean, even paying off a house or car faster is getting you a better return on your money than savings).

I get the impression that Marten has no emergency fund, hence starting one first.

--- Quote from: Milayna on 06 Sep 2018, 09:50 ---It boggles my mind that Marten has managed to make it to 20-something-adult years old by sewing money into the mattress. I've had a savings account since I was like, 10. My primary savings - and my credit card - are still with the federal credit union I signed up for as a middle school student.

Here I am in my mid forties and I haven't had a savings account in almost 20 years though I do have a checking account.
BenRG:
I really think that Marten and Tai should tell their significant others about just how they feel about them. If nothing else, their response will be cute to see!
This strip emphasises just how similar the Marten/Claire and the Dora/Tai pairings have become, both in the broad brush-strokes of their personalities and also in their feelings for each other. I wonder if we may see Dora and Claire having a similar conversation in which they realise that they have similar insecurities and frustrations and decide to set aside the awkwardness of their mutual connection with Marten and try to be friends?

Sa-v-ings? What is this ... thing... you call sa-v-ings?
In my 55 years I have never had a good enough job where savings was really possible. If I get past a month with out an overdraft fee, I consider myself lucky.
