At 41 single with 1.1 million in retirement, you could make the argument that he is more or less done saving for retirement. Money should grow to 5-6 million by 65.

Or he could be like me, get married and have kids later in life than many, and realize life can get a whole lot more expensive.
Age definitely a factor when it comes to what is considered a "dream car"...but only a factor. I know a guy who considers old USA luxobarges the ultimate...Caddy Eldorado, etc. Another has the hots for a Nomad wagon...early 911's, speedsters, mercedes gullwings, and yes, GTR's. The "dream car" list is long and varied...

Guess I was lucky to have had one for a spell...to have been there done that.

The Market watch piece was interesting...to each his own while looking at it from various angles.
