it's not a money thing as far as the $50 goes. I tag along every now and then. They go three nights a week. Most of the people I know that are 50+ know exactly what I am up to. My 35-45 friends all think differently. They are living "now". Most of them can't figure out why I have what I have without the 50+ hour grind. The world is free to spend their money however they choose, but I am pretty much the only one that does what I do at age 39. As for the inquiring mind, it's obviously a typo. If I had two wives I would be working 80+hrs a week to manage that LOL. My kids are young, pre-school and kindergarten... I get to put them on the bus and drop off the little one every day. I work on my rentals and remodel a new property every year. I do HVAC, plumbing and electrical too. I carry all the licenses. Some of my buddies still work for the companies that I got the training from to sit for the licenses. They all think it is easier to cash the checks than run a small company. It just kinda feels weird having to go online to find people who "get it" when it comes to real world finances and not being owned by the bank and MasterCard sometimes. The discussion cycle with the guys gets old. They got out to dinner 3-4 nights a week, buy stupid shit and then cry bloody murder when their hot water heater dies or they need tires on their truck. If you dare mention changing their precious lifestyle then they freak out. Don't get me wrong, they're all great people that work hard and pay taxes, but it is sad to watch them continue to shoot themselves in the foot over and over and over. Needless to say, their bosses love them because they always want more work and more overtime. I watch this as I go fishing, hunting, biking, canoeing, camping, or whatever else sounds fun in my spare time. LOL.
