lol... I know, i only work 40 but wife has to work about 50 :( but we do travel a good bit. Working for an airline helps... but we sure as heck arent “rich”, but overall we are better off right now then ever before. Kinda strange really. I went through a round of layoffs in the mid 90s, but fine since 97.

Hubby was out of work for several years (more due to where we lived though as there just were no jobs) --- so we made a big move and he does love his job now, so that helps.

So yes, one could say we are better off now -- that's true.

I guess the thing that irks me though is how zero thinks that is it ok for us to bust out butts working, but we're "rich", so tax us more to give to those that won't work. I understand the true unemployed -- hubby was one, I'm talking about the "willingly unemployed".

Seriously (LOL), I have to stop thinking that way and just be grateful we have jobs and a roof over our heads.
