Interesting from a brief scan.

We worked our fingers to the bone and saved every penny we could to allow ourselves to live kinda like what was described in the first few paragraphs. Still, it took 20 + years to get here and that was with a very good income. I can't see that happening these days. Most incomes will not even allow people to retire.

I want to say more but need to read first (a habit I sometimes forget to my later embarrassment).

I will read later after I do my non work work and maybe comment later. Hopefully this has not dropped into oblivion by then.
