[QUOTE="espringers, post: 221100, member: 816"] i sometimes wish i was back to being poor with just a regular 9-5 job in a rental house and almost no bills or debt. life was so much simpler and i was so much happier. not sure i could support the kids that way though. and they are priceless. the idea of apartment type life has sometimes appealed to me though. or at least downsizing to something requiring less time spent on maintenance and upkeep. i enjoy my 25 acres and the quality of life it affords us. but, i spend too much time "working" after work and not enough time enjoying the simple things anymore. especially with the kids. at 43 going on 44, its concerning and i think about it nearly every day. and the need for the wife to want to keep up with the joneses isn't going to make it any easier. i doubt i will ever win that battle. she doesn't see things like me in that respect. like the original poster... just venting... don't really have any easy answers. i suppose if i got let go from one of my jobs, the "decision" would be made a lot easier.
