Same. I'd want a pool, a vacation home, and never to travel economy again.
I am comfortable but can do any of these (home due to zoning and septic - we could prob afford that in our primary residence if we worked those out).

You could have this now if you had a more trustworthy spouse.

I did it few times on low income and my kid is working on making minimum wage. It's #1 want and the rest would follow.
I gave my money away several times as I knew I could get to financial freedom again be it on low income.
It's easy for me. I never knew it was such a challenge for others. It's like they have blinders on. I asked and only heard excuses.
