[quote=Anonymous]Interesting. I just posted in a separate thread about being a single mom of 1 on 80K. Older millennial. I feel really blessed and generally enjoy life. I opted for a small condo in DC that I could afford on less money and I splurge on experiences. We travel regularly. Flying business to the Caribbean on miles next month. A week in Disney World for Spring Break and the hotel is on points. Heading to Johannesburg/Capetown this summer. I would much rather live in our cute, cozy shoebox than purchase a bigger home that requires more maintenance and a bigger mortgage. I save for retirement and put a little away for college, but not at the cost of living in the moment today. I'm confident that I will not be a financial burden to my child. I will probably take care of my own parents somewhat in retirement and I'm not upset about it. It's about balance.[/quote]
