We are watching our parents grow and experience a lot of problems from the physical and emotional way they have lived their lives. We realized years ago we don't want to be in our late 40s and 50s and have the problems of a 90 year old. This has changed the way we think about everything, even our financial life.
if you take how we live now and compare it to how we lived 10 years ago, we've totally switched tracks and are going in the opposite direction.
