This post wasn't really about me sacrificing to become rich super fast. This was just about wondering if we were the only ones that were struggling or at least not as financially set as some we read about on here. I am more than well aware of what it would take to prosper as you put it. I also don't think I am living for today. I have a 401k, I put money every month into a savings account. I shop frugally. I just don't want to be completely miserable. Of course you should think and realize that not everyone (possibly your wife included) has the desire to "prosper" in the way you do. I personally just want to be able to pay my bills, put a little money away and still be able to buy myself something if I want to. I really don't aspire to be wealthy. Sure it would be great but I am not focusing on that. I am sure that it brings its own set of problems. I just want to be comfortable.
