What is an "SUV" AlexMarbus16-Nov-00 12:16 AlexMarbus 16-Nov-00 12:16  I'm sorry, it must really be a stupid question, but I'm really curious what it is. -- Alex Marbus Re: What is an 16-Nov-00 12:59 16-Nov-00 12:59  Sport Utility Vehicle (Those 'family trucks' you see everywhere) I'd Buy a Senate Seat 16-Nov-00 3:33 16-Nov-00 3:33  Why houses? John Fisher15-Nov-00 9:53 John Fisher 15-Nov-00 9:53  Does this indicate that most of you live in dumpy apartments? I kinda like the 16x80 mobile home I've got. Re: Why houses? Christian Graus19-Nov-00 10:06 Christian Graus 19-Nov-00 10:06  My house is not exactly a dive, but still kinda small. I'd love enough room to have a *lockable* area full of my PC gear, my guitars, etc, where I can make all the noise I want and know the kids won't be woken up, or come in to break things. Plus rooms for the kids with enough space for them to have PC's ( my four year old at least, my boy when he is old enough ), and a big yard for them to play in.

Igor Proskuriakov14-Nov-00 1:24 Igor Proskuriakov 14-Nov-00 1:24  I guess, I would not do that, what to do after? Travel.. For how long? Have some fun, also how long? Cheers, Igor Re: So many want to retire? ColinDavies14-Nov-00 17:47 ColinDavies 14-Nov-00 17:47  Yes and No , Igor. I think most people tick Retire as they wish to have Financial Security, Not that they wish to totally put there feet up and Jet - about. Most of us would happy to know we don't have to worry about the bills anymore. Regardz Colin Re: So many want to retire?

Start my own business... 13-Nov-00 11:28 13-Nov-00 11:28  That would be my choice.. Use the proceeds to fund all of me wacky ideas..

"All of the above" is definitely missing! 12-Nov-00 20:55 12-Nov-00 20:55  Philanthropy, anyone? Jonathan Gilligan12-Nov-00 20:41 Jonathan Gilligan 12-Nov-00 20:41  Seriously, folks. I'm not rich by any means---I have chosen work that is satisfying over work that will fill my pockets. I'm not poor and I can provide for my family. I don't want to stop working---I'd love a bit more discretion about when I take big time with my family, but working like a demon is essential to feeling good. What I would really like that I don't have is to be able to do some heavyweight giving to causes and charities that I believe in. Is this a priority for anyone else? Re: Philanthropy, anyone? John Fisher13-Nov-00 3:47 John Fisher 13-Nov-00 3:47  I know where you're coming from. A few of my friends think that I'm nuts for having not pursued a job opportunity which would have tripled my salary. The thing is, I work to support my family and I support my family because of my system of priorities. Though money would be great, there are a lot of other things that keep me right where I am for now. As a result, I can't give as much as I would like to churches, charities, and needy people -- but I still make sure I give what I can. After all, if I don't give what I can now, how can I know that I won't spend the loads of money on myself later? Re: Philanthropy, anyone? 13-Nov-00 11:31 13-Nov-00 11:31  Well, what about goin' for the bucks so you can fund your own software company? That would serve the need to work your tail off, and if you had an office in hte house you could still be with your family, and if it took off, you could help fund charities with whatever's above a threshold of what you consider enough to have a decent lifestyle for you and your family. Re: Philanthropy, anyone? ColinDavies14-Nov-00 17:42 ColinDavies 14-Nov-00 17:42  I'm similar to you JG, But the problem about me giving to causes is that even I admit some of the causes I support or would like to start are Loony Crazy, and of the wall ! Regardz Colin Davies Philanthropy, anyone - not really Christian Skovdal Andersen19-Nov-00 5:47 Christian Skovdal Andersen 19-Nov-00 5:47  Where I live, the taxes are around 55-65% - so no, I don't relly feel like giving anything to charity.
