My dad was super controlling over the thermostat and I was always miserable in the summer, sweating and getting sick from the heat. I vowed I would NEVER be that uncomfortable in my own home once I was an adult and paying the bills. I've kept that promise to myself and no matter what, my comfort is one thing I refuse to compromise on. I'm not wearing a coat in the house during winter time and I refuse to be sweating and miserable in the summer.
It was probably more to do with being poor than controlling. Heating or cooling the house costs money, I bet your dad felt bad deep down that he couldn’t maintain the costs comfortably.
@@DavidYates-x8d I didn't mean that I thought he wanted to be psychologically controlling. I mean he was literally controlling the thermostat. Yes, he was being cheap and wanted to save money.
Yeah, I remember that one time when the kids had the a/c running upstairs and my wife had the heat running downstairs. I'm like "why don't y'all just shoot me now and get it over with...." LOL
I want to save money too. However I am NOT going to freeze to death in my own house in the winter or sweat like a pig and be unable to sleep in the hot summer to save some money.
What’s more, it’s almost impossible to quantify the savings. Would take a lot of figuring to determine exactly how much fuel your furnace uses per day based on temp outside, inside, etc. Even more difficult for heat pumps.
@@xfhnhhgjbvcfg I agree, but unless your system is incredibly inefficient, it really doesn’t take that much. Especially considering their income, it’s nothing.

"free heat" tip: after cooking in the oven, and then you've turned off the oven? Leave it cracked, and the heat comes out and helps warm up the kitchen.
You have to be friggin careful about turning the heat off in some climates. If it gets cold enough your pipes can freeze and break causing 10's of thousands in damages all to save a couple hundred on a heating bill.
When we were broke and literally floating payment checks we went by "If you're cold throw on a sweatshirt... if you're still cold, turn up the heat." It took a while before we could afford to replace several windows and such that were leaking heat constantly, but we got there.
I see how far I can push back when I turn on the heat in my condo and sometimes I don’t turn it on at all in winter but… I’m in Las Vegas. It gets chilly here but not cold like Boston! Turn the freaking heat on!
I'm almost with her on this one. I'm an ice in my veins New Englander too, but even I turned the heat up in early October. Usually the weather gradually changes, this year it's just been up and down, up and down, and there was no time to acclimate.
We never complain about the temps in the house. If we're chilly, we put on a sweater. If I want, I put on the fireplace. If she wants, she puts on the fireplace. We are going to be comfortable in our house. Period.
I agree with him , I understand being frugal and cautious but to sacrifice to this extent. You will not take a single penny with when you go six feet under. Enjoy your live while you can
I actually was going to sleep in a sleeping bag for the winter at home to save on the bill. Nevermind. But I do use a window unit instead of the central a/c.
No, she's a drama queen. The husband sees the finish line knows they will get there with the progress that they have made congratulations by the way, but he now sees the finish line and says I am not freezing in my own dag I'm home she's being the drama queen here, not him.
LOL. Your making a 6-figure income. Let the boy turn the heat on. It's November in MA, it's kind of cold there. It's one thing to sacrifice eating out, netflix, or buying new clothes, but you don't want to freeze in your home no matter what you financial situation is. But in this case, they are doing great. Hardly any debt left and making gobs of money. 100 dollars extra a month isn't going to hurt them one bit.
Baby Step #8....Move to a moderate temperature state, possibly in the middle/southeast of the country. Not only do you get to escape the frozen tundra of the midwest or northeast, saving you heating bills, but you also get a 10% raise just getting out of those high tax states!
My favorite temperature is 65 degrees. I only where a T shirt in that. At 62 degrees, I wear a lightweight jacket, but I understand that not everyone likes it.
Lol I’m the same way, I can live without the heat. But I need the AC during the summer. You can make yourself hot but can’t make yourself cold. I can only take off so much off
I'm like the wife on this call but I've had to ask myself- how much would this actually save us? Even if it was $500 through the winter, it wouldn't make a huge dent in their debt. Heat the house.
There has been shown to be a correlation between the warmth of your home and clinical depression. If you can afford it, keep the thermostat turned up to a reasonable level.
Maybe he just has some swelling that increases when the heats on and when it makes the air more dry. Some people have that in high air conditioning too.
If you turn your heat down too low you will not save money if you are setting it low and cranking it back up daily. Everything in the house to the drywall gets to that cold temp and it takes a ton of energy to warm that up. Set it back a few degrees only. If you're going to be gone for week that's different. But daily? No, it doesn't help and may make it worse. If you have a heat pump definitely do not let it get too cold.
I thought he was being whiny till she said the temperature. I keep it at 68 during the day in the winter, 63 at night. My family complains about it, but I hate having to do a wardrobe change every time I go in or out of the house. If I'm wearing a sweater outside, I don't want to change into shorts and a t-shirt when I come inside. Same thing in the summer. I want to wear shorts outside and not have to switch into sweats when I come inside.
I make my family dress warm and turn the heat down. We will not dress in shorts and tanks in the winter! It's to hot! We use pj's and blankets and turn it down at night too. And turn it off if we are away from home.

Reminds me of my buddy who wouldn't turn on his A/C in Vegas like yo we're dying lol
I did this too one winter freezing in my house and then the next season I turned up the heat and the bill is about $10 more a month.
When I was paying off debt, I refused to put our heat on, too!!! hahaha Luckily, my husband was on board. Oh, I loved this call.
Don’t sacrifice the very basic comforts and necessities just to be out of debt. It’s not supposed to be a painful process. Please.
I use electric heaters but then I live by myself so I only need to heat one room at a time.

The thermostat argument is real.

We installed a wood stove... It paid for itself in one month.
