Good plan, smart lady. Me too. The DOW is up over 11,800 as we speak an, ALL TIME HIGH, that should make all of us who have been investing for the future feel better.
Of course, like I told my wife "it won't cost me much to live when I retire because I'll spend most of the time sitting on the front porch in my robe shaking my fist and swearing at teenage hotrodders as they go down my street".
LOL.... you sound like my husband. There's an "old guy" on our block who fills that role currently, and sometimes when my husband sounds cranky, I ask him if he's studying to take over the part. ;)
It might not cost YOU a lot to retire, but just imagine how much money your wife will be spending while she's out all day getting away from you. ;-D
