Yeah. Poor people can be happy, too. Material possessions are not a guarantor of happiness, often the opposite.

You can live a happy life and give the same to your family by being in debt and living from paychech to paycheck?
Not much debt (car and house payments) and not living paycheck to paycheck.
Its not a high spending lifestyle I'm talking about al, thats what most people think of millionaires, its just not true for the most of them.
I'm not talking about spending either. I'm talking about the pursuit of money. I've seen people get so caught up in it that it drives their every move. I have a friend in Florida who is doing pretty darn well right now financially, but he's going to leave his job to go to Iraq for a year to help with the clean up for $210.00 per hour. One full year in an unstable country, leaving his wife and two young children for the pursuit of the almighty dollar.
I understand and welcome any chance to improve finances for a comfortable life and retirement, but will not get caught up in excess.
