Janes,
You hit that nail squarely on the head. My wife and I do the same. We are going to be all right when, and if, we make it to retirement.

Sarooster, quite often people who do well in retirement
are those who carefully saved their pennies while working. That's my goal. I want enough to be comfortable, enough for a rainy day, enough to be generous, enough for a little travel, etc. But to get there, I am careful now by not living beyond my means, by getting out of debt and socking away extra, etc. So often people who grouse about others' incomes are grousing out of jealousy and perhaps a realization of their own inadequacy when it comes to saving vs excessive spending. Ya know?
As always, good post!

Thanks Kingmi,
I find it odd that people who work hard and make sure they do things correct are lionized for making too much money at times. I know $95 million is a lot of money. The rising tide that lifted that guy is lifting many others that work with him.
