I kind of can't believe it myself.
That seems to apply to a lot of things these days. Not sure if it’s rampant inflation or I’m finally morphing into my dad but I seem to have sticker shock daily. $30k for a new motorcycle, $80k+ for a 21’ ski boat...and don’t get me started on home prices, and my wife keeps talking about moving.

The old saying, “he who dies with the most toys wins” is becoming quite a challenge.

Dayum. How will I ever retire?
