A Wife. My first one was tired of base housing and being a Navy wife she said. Sadly after getting out meet a number of folks told me their ex spouse said the same thing. Just a heads up.

Our first big purchase was a house. I had just turned 40 and never owned a home. We had always rented or lived in base housing.

My current home in 2005. I find it so ironic that I am in a similar situation as in 2005 before the housing bubble burst. I am looking to relocate to NC at such a time as this, home prices are yielding a record high. This question could very well be the answer to my prayers.

Not sure if this counts, but I guess you can say a whole new transmission/clutch because my car broke down on the road trip back home

The first big purchase after separating from the Marines in 2008 (the day I got home from Camp Pendleton) was 2 suits to prepare for scheduled interviews.
