[quote=Anonymous]There are many things that change perspective. When were were two DINKS living in a $150K house and maxing out retirement, able to buy whatever we wanted, when we wanted, travel, etc. we felt rich on our then $175K HHI. Now, we have a bigger $600K house (and corresponding mortgage), two kids, $2900/month daycare fees and all of our choices are much more limited as we take care of bigger house and children, even though we make $40K more than we did then. But we don't feel richer. But we are. Perspective can do a lot. Stop and break down what you spend your $250K income on. Then stop and realize how luck you are to have the choice to spend that type of money on those choices. Many people with half your income don't have those same choices you've made.[/quote]
