[Ima saver]

Yes boe, you put it very well. And, lgslgs, I can see where you are coming from. I especailly felt tht way when I was younger. I too wanted to be financially independant and I kept striving for the bigger picture. I much perferred saving and investing over spending on things I did not really need. I still don't have a lot of things a lot of people think they need, like large screen tv's, dvd player, tivo. (And a lot more things that I don't even know what they are) I have a 20 year old tv, a $40 vcr and a cheap microwave with one button. I am happy with what I have!
