[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is for pure curiosity. My spouse and I are 30/32 and have HHI of 190. Do you feel like you're doing well in relation to your peers? [/quote]

31 and 32 and we don't care about the financials of others. We are happy and content with our modest lifestyle and a newborn baby. There will always be someone with more and someone with less than you have. Measuring your financial status with your peers will only do 1 of 2 things:

1. Make you bitter, feel inadequate or impel you to work harder to achieve something you really don't need while sacraficing the more important things,

2. Give you a false sense of security, pride, ego boost, and a feeling of superiority over others with less financially.

We both come from families that didn't have alot financially but placed value on more important things in life. I was raised to understand that the things in life that provide longest satisfaction are not material in nature and do not cost anything! Neither of us lacked love, sufficient education, discipline, recreation, food, neccessities or friends. Even now that we make a decent living, we try to view money in its proper place as a protection when needed and not the driving force behind our goals in life.

Just remember, a rich man and a poor man have the same eventuality. A pine box 6 feet in the ground!  :wink: [/quote]
