Question of the Day!

You have to weigh the pros and cons on whatever you decided. Can't be pressured by others for what "they" want. It's not for your benefit, it's to satisfy theirs. How I always looked at it.

Look back with no regrets on the decision you made. If everything is working out fine and you're ok with it. You've done well for yourself. It's when we start 2nd guessing ourselves we may start having regrets on what we "should" have done.

I took some risks but nothing that was detrimental to our way of life or would have radically changed our lives. We chose and lived it out. Mine wanted me to go to college. I found it for myself as a waste of time to the disappointment of my parents. I soon left home afterward so I wouldn't have to listen to their BS. I landed up retiring long before all the others with Masters and PhD's did and with a much more built up retirement.

They're struggling though they made huge money and I'm living comfortable because I invested right and didn't try to keep up with the Joneses. That's the biggest mistake that high paid professionals run into. I lived a simple blue collar life.

I've seen many end up in bankruptcy that had triple of what I was making, Yet I'm the one who amassed enough to live comfortably. Go figure.
