My daughter bought her condo when she was 25 years old. Drove a Ford.
Did do some travel, but lived economically. Same condo comlex has a
couple who rent the condo for $4k a month, and drive leased luxury
sedans. Who is going to have a hard retirement?



I'd bet on the couple who rent the condo having a happier retirement
than your daughter.


Happiness and satisfaction are states of mind that don't co-exist with
envy and jealousy. I don't believe that Harry has figured that out.
