Subject: Re: Work till you die. (PR&C) by vetteblondie on 2012/5/10 20:34:04 I do not make much but what savings I had took a tank with the economy. An already small 401k dropped by more than half. Once it came back, I moved it, then when mom passed, wasn't much savings there either but had her bills plus mine to cover for a year while house was on the market, once house sold, I added that to the small pile. After losing three family members at one time, then the live in leaving at the same time as well as my job disappearing - I figured life is too damned short to hold on to what little I had that might not be there depending what president we have ruins the economy further. I moved some into an IRA, then paid off some things with some of it, bought the truck and the '02 Vette. I figure as long as my job pays my bills and I have a little bit of savings, by damned I will enjoy what I can of what I have - afterall - what damned good is a Vette if you can't drive the damned thing when you're 90? I have always wanted a convertible, now I have one and yes, I enjoy it all I can. That's what life is about. I work 3 days a week at my day job, and I freelance at home for extra cash. As long as I have everything I need and some of the things I want - I'm fine. I'll never be rich so what the hell?  |
