[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I grew up very middle class with parents who were always saving for something and rarely spent money on themselves. We started making "upper income" incomes in our late 30's but we weren't comfortable living to that income but we were very comfortable saving a lot of money. For a long time we lived in a very nice upper middle income neighborhood even though we could have spent much more but we were comfortable, happy and we didn't want to live a lifestyle that our children might never see again. Our children are now in their 30's and we are retired with a very high net worth and while we have two nice homes it's just not in our DNA to really indulge ourselves with fancy cars etc. What's been great for us is that our savings mentality means we have never worried about money when it came to things like paying for college or retirement.
