Nords said:I've posted before about George Stott, whom I admire (but won't emulate) for having the courage to make this shameless declaration that:
"Every few years, I do an extensive study as to what it would cost us to live were we to stop working. The figure goes up each time I do this. Nice to have items that are easily affordable because we continue to work have become necessities. We could have retired years ago at a much lower annual cost than today. A few years from now, I suspect it will be even higher. On the flip side, our lifestyle continues to improve as we go on more trips, etc."
At the time he wrote this, nearly five years ago, he was 68. He's still working!
He's nuts!
