I need to stop starting sentences with, "I want..." and start being happy with what I have. (My wife's biggest pet peeve with me, lol)
I make plenty of money for a 27 year old as a staff level government urban planner, and I am contributing a healthy amount to my retirement so that feels good. On the other hand I decided to go back to Grad School last year because I saw the writing on the wall that I won't be competitive in 5-10 years without an advanced degree. I want to reach the Community Development Director's seat someday...I don't need to make millions to be happy, but I would like to be able to afford a few toys and still see all of the bills paid at the end of the month.
Money does not equal happiness for me, but it certainly has brought me a level of comfort and enjoyment that many others of my friends, and people my age don't seem to have currently.
