I'm always curious about people's strategies and lifestyle. I'm not a keeping up with a Benjamin's guy and live fairly conservatively. I've been matching my employers 401K for the last 18 years and my wife and I Make a decent living. We carry zero debt aside from the mortgage, but have 2 kids that will most likely go to college.
I have a lot of acquaintances that have single earner incomes have great houses and fancy cars. It just makes me wonder if we're doing something wrong or just not carrying a load of debt. One thing we really need to look into is financial planning for the future and alternative sources of income.
The stupid Dolphins took $45 out of my life savings last night too.
