[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We spent many years saving, investing and planning so we could put our kids through college with no debt, build up retirement savings, pay off our mortgage etc. We lived comfortably but not the way we could have. But now we are retired and even after setting aside a lot of money for our kids (once we are gone) and grandkids via 529's and a charitable trust we still have more money then we could spend unless we got "flashy" which just isn't in our DNA. We live well and travel well but neither of us has a desire to make some kind of statement. I drive a 5 year old Subaru and my DH drives a used car. He could afford a Ferrari or a Bentley but doesn't need it. Save, invest and plan and don't worry about flashy money. Many who have it don't have it if there is a recession or a job loss.
