We got married 15 years ago after both having nasty expensive divorces. We have both worked hard, I always had a side job for extra $$$. We have made some good choices and been really lucky too, we are blessed. Neither of us have university degrees. My wife was excepted into the Vet medicine program but couldn't afford to go, later she had to drop out of her MBA program due to a difficult pregnancy. She has had senior rolls with a number of fortune 500 companies, all on smarts and hard work. I tell my kids, work hard, make good choices, and work hard. They are all smart so if they want they can succeed. Time will tell, now it's time to spend their inheritance.  |
Well done, my friend. Well done.
Now about that spend down.
kscarrol and myself have a list of places to visit when you and your wife make it down this way. We will make an excellent contribution to your spend-down plan.
I know, I know...you can thank us later.
