After reading about himself on my blog, my brother sent me the following email...
"Remember the email story about the guy trapped on his roof during a flood who passes up two boats and a helicopter rescue while saying "the Lord will provide." He dies in the flood and then asks God why he didn't provide, and God says "I sent you two boats and a helicopter, what more do you want?"
You don't want to run out of money in retirement, die from starvation, and then have God say "your brother/son/husband nagged you about saving for retirement your whole life - what more do you want?"
While practical advice, I still had to ask him "Where is this money coming from?" His answer was...
"With all the free time you have, you can surely think of a way to make money"
Yes, I can hear all you parents out there laughing your heads off (especially you fellow "stay-at-homers". And, your assumption is correct. He does not have kids!

Eventually your son will go to school from 8:00 am until 3:00 pm, which gives you seven hours to make money.
Oh, and there is SOOO much more to life than money...
Your possessions and your hard-earned money wither away....and your hours spent earning it....they've slipped by too!
