[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are in top 1% in terms of income/wealthy, but drive a modest car, wear modest clothes, and generally live a "mostest" lifestyle, then there are 2 possibilties 1) you are spending the money extravagantly in another way. There are many many ways to be extravagant. 2) you are hoarding money like a dog in the manger 3) you are giving so much money to charity that you are actually living on $60k a year. You should not feel you are a "normal" person if you are doing the first two. You just are not. If you are the 3rd, you are also not a normal person, you are an unusually good person.[/quote] Just because I don't piss my money away on meaningless shit does not make me abnormal. We don't have enough to retire at 37 but we have enough to have an extended period of unemployment (2 years) or major health crisis without it affecting the way we live. That means a lot more to me than a Suburban and overpriced handbags.[/quote]
