Is your aunt single, by chance?
I feel like I make decent money for my age but I spend a lot of it rather than invest or save it.
I appreciate it, but many worse off then we are! I haven't met a doctor yet who isn't amazed that at best, I'm not paralyzed, and at worst dead. So, no matter how hard something might be, it without a doubt can and should have been been much worse.
For real?! I freakin' love Spain! Think she'll let me move in with her?
"We bring home over 500k combined" and "we do OK" don't go together.
Wife and I have been DINKs (dual income no kids) for 30 years now. Have accumulated a very low 7 figure investment portfolio. Both in our 50s, but continue to work just to have a purpose and remain active. The main thing is we live modestly and spend frugally in order to travel extensively.
It blows my mind how much money some of you guys make. One second I feel like I'm doing good for my age and the next I feel like a poor.
Doubtful. Her husband recently passed away so I doubt she’s ready for some new dick
It's not really new, it's 40 years old.
I wish it was even close to that much. Think much lower. As in barely into 6 figures ea.

Money isn't everything. We sold our technology company (I was a very minority owner) to Comcast three years ago. I made good money and got a bump post acquisition to north of $300K but was miserable working for that wretched company. I walked away 2 years ago and became part owner of a startup brewery and distillery and bring home less than half that but am happier than I've been in a long time.
Now if I could just get my wife and kids to understand the financial situation!!

You sure? The one I'm talking about goes from Michigan to Miami.
Just compare yourself to me then. You can feel rich.
I do agree money helps. I definitely agree lack of it can really hurt. We may not be rich but I doubt there is anyone that can be much more happier in life than I am. That is really what it is all about.
You do come off as one of the happier posters here. You seem like the person that could step in dog shit and smile that you at least had shoes on when it happened
Nope, get in line!This is Dixie Highway:
They might call this Highway 1, still technically Dixie HIghway:
Also, in on @jhmossy's aunt
I’m piss poor but I work two jobs (911 dispatcher, Lawn Care business) and make sure my kid has everything he needs and a few things he don’t need. I do the best I can and I have a pretty good kid so I’m ok I guess.
I’m definitely in the bottom tier because I was born physically disabled and get monthly disability checks. By the end of this year I will have gotten a little north of $9,000 from disability.
Oh man, I bet you have some stories. What's the craziest 911 call you've ever gotten?
Lol...I sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, feel so sorry for you.
In all seriousness, as a single guy, you've got a pretty good financial situation. Not positive, but I think you said that you didn't have any kids? If that's the case, and if you live in Kentucky, you would almost have enough to buy that castle in Versailles.
Craziest? My first day on the job I had a guy call towards the end of my shift and he was whispering to me on the phone that he had been kidnapped and was tied down to a bed but was able to call for help because whoever took him forgot to take his phone. He said he could see them walking up and down the hallway and he could hear them talking and they was going to kill him. Turned out to be an older guy in the nursing home who heard the nurses walking up and down the halls doing their two hour rounds! Scared the shit outta me!!!
I’ve had some really bad calls involving kids and people committing suicide but it’s stuff I don’t really like talking about. Kinda stuff you keep replaying over and over in your mind even though you don’t want to.
That's nuts! Yeah, couldn't imagine some of the horrible stuff you hear. The nursing home story is pretty damn funny though. Laughing I am guessing he had Alzheimer's or some other form of dementia.
I actually have 6 kids (we both have 2 from previous marriage, and 2 together). It takes a little bit of money to keep that going. jumpingsmile
