Everyone has a different life experience, and there really is no right or wrong.
As Boomers, one of our major goals as a couple, and later as a family, was to create financial freedom as early as possible, so we could pursue whatever we considered to be important in life–rather than waiting for a later “retirement” scenario. Investing in real estate at a young age, among other things, enabled us to do so.
We enjoy our home life, and can’t imagine not having a stable home base, but we also enjoy having extreme mobility, which, for us, has worked out to be the best of both worlds.
Regardless of what each of us chooses to do with our lives–everything in this lifetime is temporary–so enjoy it while you can.
