[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't really feel anything reading this article except - this guy got to make great life decisions. His wife didn't get to work so his children had a full time parent (highly educated at that - huge opportunity cost but awesome for the kids and him). He got to work in the profession he wanted. He got to live in highly desirable places. He got to provide his children with the 1% of education - even advanced degrees. On a more basic level - his children had food, shelter, clothing, loving parents, hot water etc. It appears that no one in his nuclear family has had any type of heath crisis. What more did he expect out of life? A huge pile of money? He could have had that too. And can still have that - both him and his wife and work really hard for the next decade and stockpile money for retirement and be pretty comfortable. He is nothing like the working poor. Nothing.[/quote] :roll: Did we read the same article? He doesn't sent have $400 to spare in an emergency. I would call that pretty dire actually.[/quote]
