Exactly. I’m going to enjoy my life with my family and make sure the wife is well taken care of if I go first. If there’s something left for the kids, so be it. They get their first car and their college on me. After that it’s on them.
I know too many that lived like misers and then died early and did nothing but leave a pile for someone else to spend. Not that I’m going to be reckless but I will enjoy what I make.
