Live within your means, make hay when the sun is out, and save for a rainy day. If this doesn’t apply to you then you have no reason to take offense.
I don’t regret checkerboarding my RSV Days at all. Money can not and will not ever replace the time spent with family, especially those with young kids. If this goes really south and I’m out of a Job, My kids would probably be happy because I’d be around a lot more. Sureeeee We’d have to ration food and probably sell everything And live in a box but at least I can say I lived the Dream!!
