[QUOTE="BrokenBackJack, post: 221099, member: 642"] Money makes the world go around they say. You have to be the one to decide when family or financial matters make the most sense to you and your family. While you must work to provide now and for the furture of the family and the future for you and your bride later in life, it doesn't have to occupy all the time now to provide for the future. Lots of things do not need to be purchased as most are wants and not needs. You have to decide which is more important, to work long hours so you can buy wants or work less to provide needs. Believe me i went down both of those trails in my life. At one stretch i was averaging 128 hours a week and worked 4 1/2 months without a day off. Finally i went in and said i enjoy the dollars and i really enjoyed the work but my family wasn't getting anything from me other than money as i came home, cleaned up, ate a little bit, and went to bed. After that meeting with my boss things worked out for the better. He and I gave more responsibility to other workers and they always didn't do things the way we wanted or would have done it ourselves, but most of the time the job got done. They learned responsibility and we learned we didn't need to do everything ourselves either. You have to be the one to make the decision on when is enough, enough. I was brought up to be a workaholic and i enjoyed working very much but there comes a time when you have to draw the line and separate the two. Your time with family now is what makes them who they will be in the future. Remember that! [/QUOTE]
