  1. the previous post brings up a good question.

    how much is enough? what net worth or passive income cash flow is required for that "comfort" level in retirement.

    Happiness comes from variety combination aspects such as health, love, economical stability, good relationship, etc.
    Money is a part.
    Money will never furfill anybody's happiness.
    It might furfill your illussion & greedy mind in short time
    But, the emptiness will never go away
    Living as normal with lovely family with average life style is the blessed life style.

  4. perspective is a good thing to get. be careful of going to the opposite extreme and developing a guilt complex because you were born (or live) in America.

    Acknowledging how awesome the opportunities here are might make someone grateful; might even make someone want to see the people of their homeland understand the benefits of free enterprise and the rule of law.
