I love what I do, and I also am very good at it. It also invoves a lot of hours, which my Wife isn't real hip on, but it affords us a nice lifestyle. Not spendy folks (due more to the Wife, like Jake I'd find a toy or project to spend some "mad money" on) but our frugalness lets us go crazy on things that mean something to the both of us.
I've met and known people and friends who have made money at an accelerated pace, and watched it destroy marriages and relationships. You really have to keep it in perspective, a lot of them were happier and more pleasant when they were making less. Sometimes the "more stuff" invoved mistresses, drugs or both.
