[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take it from an old timer here - you are busy because you want to be busy. Someone told this to me years ago and I thought they were totally off their rocker. As it turns out, they are right. Being busy is a CHOICE. You can rearrange your life to not be so busy. You don't have to keep up with the Joneses. You don't have to be in the rat race. You are CHOOSING to live your life this way. This takes a very long time to understand. But once you do, you can begin to peel back the layers and make changes that work for you and your family.[/quote] This is good advice. Anything else you can impart on us? Maybe start a s/o thread? I love getting advice from been there, done that aged people. [/quote] Different poster and not that old (early 50s), but I do have some advice. Save like crazy when you are in your 20s, 30s and 40s. We have no debt now; paid off the mortgage when we were mid 40s. Stop at one or two children. Stay married. Don't trade up in houses or cars. Give generously to worthwhile charities. Cultivate your community ties and spiritual life.[/quote]
