Now, if we could figure out how to live long enough to enjoy it all

I worked for a guy in the 70's who spent part of every Sat morning going over his retirement account. His Father had lived to 95 and he took care of him. He was a real scrooge with his family and himself. He had a car accident that killed him the first month of his retirement.

That was a seminal event for my thinking on retirement. When I read the book, "The Millionaire next door", I was struck by how stingy the people were. I am here to tell you that you don't have to pinch pennies to make a buck.

I decided that the most important thing was to enjoy it along the way. I constantly tell my friends in their 20's that I dance with, that my only regret in life was not taking bigger bites of the apple along the way. I only learned to do this in the last 10 years. Now, when I decide to do something, I push it to the edge of the envelope!
