[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ To that end, we're fantastically rich here. Paid off house, cash cars, SAHP, two kids, more than a dozen weeks of vacation, no student loans, etc.

However, the biggest changes in the last few years have been having the kids (so much fulfillment...so little free time...) and getting my current job (instead of being in grad school and working during the day).

The only way more money could change our lives significantly would be if we banked enough to be FI. And to be honest, there's a good chance I'd still keep working; we'd probably just take some crazy vacations.

Money doesn't change your life much at all once you have enough to meet your needs; time is much more valuable after that. And even that isn't that life-changing once you have some of it, because study after study shows social interactions and a sense of purpose are the strongest predictors of happiness and longevity, and all the time in the world is useless if you don't have people you care about to spend it with and something meaningful to do with it.[/quote]

Yeah I agree. That is why I do a lot of volunteer work. We don't want kids, but that doesn't mean I can't teach them math & science.[/quote]
