I pay a guy 65K a year (in this area of Florida its VERY good money) to be me when I am not there. I may not be a rich as your friend materially when I am old but I will be richer than him family wise because my kids and my wife know I make an effort to be with them as much as possible and they love me for it.

In the last 2 weeks I was out of the office 10 of the 14 days spending time:

a. with my family in our timeshare in Atlantis for a week

b. got off plane from Nassau, dropped kids at Grandma's and jumped on plane to North Carolina to pick up POS Audi, drive to Savannah and spend 2 romantic nights alone with the wife.

I CHOOSE my family first...
That's the way to do it bro. I commend you for your clarity of thought on this matter.

Working 60-70 hours a week is asking for trouble, and i simply cannot take anyone that works that many hours seriously when they contend "It's family first for me."

Yeah, right.
