Good credit, a new wife, and extra money, I decided to move to a better neighborhood. My wife and I spent a few days looking at houses and those people who appeared to be doing so much better than we were are actually doing pretty badly. We're still looking and I'm wondering if we should move at all. The point of this post: if you're content and not struggling, be happy. You're probably doing better than the people you envy. |
An important lesson that most with money never really learn. The bitching you hear from highly paid people like stockbrokers is technically accurate - they don't often have a lot of savings - but that's because those folks spiral into wasting their money on things they don't need, over and over again. A bit of parsimony goes a long way, and all of a sudden your life is soooo much happier...
