Too many people worry too much about money while overlooking the other wonderful things in their lives. Some of my closest friends fall into this category. I keep reminding them to count their blessings.
In the opposite category are those who have made decent money over the years, by following the principles set out in this book. But they never married. Their children live on the other side of the world. And their dogs grew old and died.
Where would you prefer to find yourself when you hit middle age?
Ideally, you should find a balance between work and family. A loving partner, happy children, friends, family holidays, stimulating hobbies, two Chihuahuas and a white picket fence.
Not too many children, though. They’ll eat through your money faster than those Chihuahuas. Do yourself and the world a favour. Let’s keep it to 1 or 2, at the most. And wait for the right time.
Some people achieve this balance, at least some of the time. Some never do.
