The trick is working out the right balance of course. How long do people in your family live for any issues with the big C, other family demands. Then you get run over by a Jeepney on day 1 Hence live for today

My problem is that I want a comfortable retirement, flying back and fore to Asia, 2 homes, nice wheels and not to be worried about paying the heating/aircon bill. I could retire tomorrow if I go on the figures at the start of this thread. I do wonder what this guys Mrs will do once the cashflow stops...
