Wake up each day and do your best son. Be kind and give your boss a good day's work for the wages he pays you. Words from my parents. Unforeseen things happen in people's lives that bring financial ruins to the best lifelong plans. I played by the rules, did all the correct things with the dough and my Mother and Mother In Law were never factored into the math of our retirement plan. What are you gonna do, stress about it so you drop dead, not us. Acceptance and adaptation are the keys to proceeding comfortably when the plan changes. Having no regrets is important also. We have been out looking at houses since the Irma Hurricane and have seen so many beautiful homes from the top Of The Villages all the way to Fenney. The jury is still out. I just love it where we are. Time will tell the story.
Our actual reality has nothing to do with the way the plan was set. It is still fine. It was supposed to be way better. We don't have one bit of complaint in our heart or minds. What we have is faith. We'll do just fine.
