[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1177323, member: 43436"] When I was an 8-year PTer, I frequently worked about 100-hours each week (30-35 at UPS, including a pair of doubles, 40 at a FT job, 20-30 at a minimum wage grocery store) and earned about $50,000 -- before figuring in gas and other work-related expenses. You didn't match the wage I did, nor did you work the hours I did, so I call exaggeration on your end. But I do agree you can live a fabulous life frugally, which is what I currently do. But for travel, it involves things like traveling to Mexico/Caribbean during hurricane season (frequent rain, although big savings make it worth it) or - for somebody living in the Midwest - taking Greyhound to Chicago, staying near O'Hare for a cheap room and taking the L train throughout town. Both excellent vacations, but neither will save you $$$$ to be a millionaire by 40. [/QUOTE]
