[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for us, it was less about an actual dollar amount and more about not worrying about money.

If my kids need something for school or sports, I'll pay to have it overnighted. However, I won't spend more than $50 on sunglasses because I break or lose them.

I spend money on what I value and save on what I don't value.

My husband makes about $375,000 - $425,000 and I make $30,000-$2000,000 depending on how my investments do that year. All of my money goes into retirement and college savings so I never really feel like I'm earning anything. I never see it. I don't even have an ATM card or checkbook for my accounts because we don't touch them. I have family money that I haven't touched except for a down payment on our house but it's there as a cushion and helped us relax in lean years.  My husband didn't come from money but has about $8million in a bank account from selling a company he owned.

I have a healthy bank account but I don't feel rich. I feel like there are always people around here with much, much more.

You don’t have “lean” years. You are rich. Good lord, y’all are the dumbest people I’ve ever encountered. [/quote]
