[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you should read "The Millionaire Next Door." An excellent read. You are a classic case of Big Hat/No Cattle. Your assets/savings should equal your age times your income divided by 10. So say you are 40 and income is $500k. You should have at least $2M in assets/equity. If you do, you are doing alright.[/quote]

Excellent suggestion! PP here...I read this several years ago. Great book.[/quote]

This is a terrible suggestion. OP is all cattle and no hat ie the exact opposite. but she doesn't enjoy it.[/quote]

Right, so wouldn't OP benefit from reading the book?[/quote]

No OP would not.  You are dense. [/quote]

I read the book. Every word. Do you think people cannot change? Maybe she has never thought of savings goals in this way before?[/quote]

I think what you are missing is that OP doesn't feel rich because she is saving a lot of the money. She thinks rich people spend money much more lavishly. She doesn't need a book to tell her how to save. She already does that. She needs a book to tell her either to spend some of the money or quit bitching. [/quote]
