[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 599310, member: 4362"] That is a big problem. I'm happy to say my wife and I both believe in deferred gratification. We have both worked hard toward the same goals. When people told us we "deserved more" or "owed it to ourselves" to spend our hard earned money on luxuries we did not buy into it. The interesting thing about delayed gratification is that in our youth our appetite for luxury was much more than it is now. Pursuing luxury in our youth would have put us in debt. Now, after years of skimping we can afford to do almost anything our heart desires but both our eyes are on the two rocking chairs on the front porch. To us, being able to enjoy our sunset years together in these chairs is about all we now desire. Funny how your priorities change. [/QUOTE]
