put back 15% into my 401K

pay my bills

buy my kids stuff

take my kids on vacation each year

try not to worry about money all the time

try to give my wife and my kids whatever it is thay want to make their life confortable.

dad I wonder if you're proud of me, he would stop right there and say its okay not to make a million just be proud to be working and providing for the ones you love and putting food on the table.

something to be proud of

my grandmother saved her whole life and in the end it paid for in home sitters and nursing home when she couldn't even remember who she or anyone else was. I want to enjoy my life as much as I can and hopefully die before becoming a burden to my kids.

THAT is an awesome plan.

My kids are grown now, Brad - but, you know what? I never sit around and say, "Man, I wish we hadn't gone to Disney and spent so much money." Quite, the contrary, I wish we had done more. Spend money on yourself and experiences, rather than buying things is the key to a happy life.

And that's all anybody really needs...

Sounds like she wasn't a financial burden to her kids.
