http://money.cnn.com/magazines/moneymag/moneymag_archive/2008/02/01/102902034/index.htm?postversion=2008012510

Now this is a very interesting read. A little long. But there is some realism here.

If you are lucky enough to do what this couple has done. More power to you.

20 years in service with a family. That's dedication.....

Not only to a financial plan. Dedication to family. Dedication to each other.

Living the American Dream.

Too bad St. Louis is not like the rest of America, or would we really want that any way.

Nice thought to think about the thoughts that this could be a reality.

I wonder how many people already could retire but choose not too.

So many what if's in this world.

One thing is that they did not say if they paid their house off or not.

Now that would be interesting.

You have to wonder about interest earned versus interest paid in some respect.

But compounding does have it's merits.

Kudo's for these people and it for one inspires me to keep doing what we do.

Ciao!

http://money.cnn.com/2008/11/03/technology/copeland_solar.fortune/index.htm?postversion=2008110408 Go Solar!!! To be able and site in the air blowing at me in the face would be the day that Solar will be my friend. Might be time to buy that solar stock but which one. Earmarks have been allocated from that 700 billion to go right to it. NICE.

More facts and figures: Money in your 40s

I always wondered about reports and statistics. This article was published : Published March 26, 2007 and the sources of the table of stats: Source: Federal Reserve's 2004 Survey of Consumer Finances *Life expectancy from National Center for Health Statistics, 2006 **U.S. Census Bureau, 2004 (ages 35-44) http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/RetirementandWills/CreateaPlan/MoneyInYour40sItsMakeOrBreak.aspx Irrelevant of that fact it is very interesting as far as numbers go. Scary thought,,,,,, and people want to place social security retirement account planning in the hands of individual american people. Interesting...... Very interesting.
