I have a SIL who thinks we must be rich and 'lucky' because we retired at 59 and travel quite a bit.
As I pointed out to my wife...we don't own two top of the line iphones with the full meal deal package, we don't operate two cars we cannot afford, we don't live in a house we cannot afford, we don't eat out three or four times a week, and we never run an O/S balance on our credit cards, we don't buy furniture on the never never plan/don't pay a dime plan.
We actually planned our life and made pro-active decisions-some of them very difficult. We did not sit back an just let things happen.
So I guess we are 'lucky'
