It's nice to make money on dates and not have to take my clothes off.
Shoot. Seems I was doing it wrong all those years...

My budget is well below the amount figured at 4% of portfolio, but I exceeded it this month. Actually, I have budgeted for just under 3%. One little temptation, and I blew it. I did it by buying a nice, comfy chair.
TromboneAl, I just do not understand.
It is the life sucking b.s. that makes work a job.
Sorry -- that's the transcript from a Monty Python sketch in which they torture someone by nudging her with soft cushions and making her sit in a comfy chair. I always think of that when I hear "comfy chair."
It should make more sense this way:

Budget wise, I take all the capital items I'll need to purchase over the next 20 years and allocate a chunk of those into todays budget as a placeholder. New cars, furniture, appliances, tires, major house maintenance items like paint, roofing, water heater, etc.
Would someone in business maintain an expense budget and then try to purchase their large capital goods from that? I think not. Yet many people in their working lives dont budget for major cost items and each need becomes an emergency...
Its an eye opener and if an ER isnt considering it, could be trouble. The annual cost of my capital budget is about $10,000.
You can say that again!!! I think that says it all.
(Posted from a motel room in Houston, where I had to travel for a meeting tomorrow that could just as easily have been done by telecon.... or even more easily, by e-mail. I despise traveling for work!!! It's stupid!!! and b.s. too!!! I'd rather be sleeping in my own bed!!! and it's still better than being in the office.)

O brave men, if you do doubt your early retirement, and doubt your financial independence, know that death awaits you with big nasty pointy teeth!
I agree with all of your points, esp. the last one.
I think W2R would be a little concerned to find you sleeping in her bed.
But hey, I could be wrong.
Hey, thats a nice picture of me on the left there...where'd you get that?
it's still better than being in the office.
