Nice post.

Here is another way of looking at it are some folks "spending" too much now on savings and retirment that you are not enjoying your current life, if so I say you are just as guilty as the person that is overspending.

You only live your life in today. That doesn't mean go crazy like there is no tommorow but damn if you have some extra cash enjoy yourself.
