Was driving it last week on the way to Easter dinner, got a phone call and was told that my uncle had passed on" Ironic that I was in the car when it happened. Just back from his funeral where I told his family how he had impacted my life , especially the last one. ..I am 58....Bill

There is so much truth to that.

I have seen so many people save every dime for retirement and then not live to see it, or not be able to enjoy it when they do retire.

I work to balance it. I'm living my life now with things I can enjoy while I can. Will I be rich when I retire? No, but I will be comfortable and that works for me.
