Not only is the idiot box a money waste, but the average person wastes several hours a week sitting around mindlessly watching it. Imagine all the possibilities for that extra time. You could earn some part time income, go back to school and improve your education, do some volunteer work, etc.
If you are happy about saving 50% of your income for a house, now that you have all that extra time, imagine how thrilled you'll be if you earn some extra income and put that toward your future home.
To me a better effort then earning extra income in spare time is getting education or making the career moves(time consuming) so you can work 20hrs (wife) and myself 30-40hrs and enjoy life what it has to offer.
