Thats fine for you Michael, but we are all different in our outlook, to many people around me have made big plans but the big C has come and changed that,
I am making my plans for me and Emma to be together sooner then later and enjoying the world , money is no good to you when you are dead

Sorry to have to ask Steve, what is the big C ?

... it is a frequently~used generic terminology for cancer, in ANY - and/or ALL - of its forms, Michael.

Yep, the big C can get anyone at any time. Live for today as well as tomorrow.

Never knew that Arthur, I thought it may have stood for Christmas. So Steve said that "the big C has come and changed that" does that mean what I'm thinking? if so I'm so sorry to hear that.

, Michael ... what Steve meant was, he'd known far too many people who'd saved for THEIRS (and their family's) future, but then, unexpectedly, had had the misfortune of being stricken by cancer - the 'BIG C' - without getting the opportunity to fulfill their plans.

Thanks Arthur that's a relief I understand now. I must admit I never think about if I'm going to have an illness or will I die tomorrow, I just get on with life it's short enough as it is and I've got loads of things to do long term and if anything unfortunate happens hopefully I'll never know about it. My thoughts on living a long life is to always have a long term project to get excited about
