I mentioned a tiny portion of the specifics of our family’s financial lives as it relates to the discussion we were having, as others have, and keep the rest private.
For me, the motivating factor in all acquisitions, is creating lives we love for our family and extended family now, and what we can pass on to our kids. For me, that’s what makes it all worthwhile.
Ultimately, some of us will die young, and some will live to be old with and without health issues. Thankfully, at 60, I’m fine so far, but since all life on earth is temporary, I’m not worried either way.
