[QUOTE="Brownslave688, post: 1503695, member: 34439"] I think a lot of people are scared they can't afford to retire. I understand. It's a huge step and once you take it there's no going back. You don't know if you'll live 4 more years or 40. I plan on putting in my 35 and being gone. There's things that could change that like landing a sweet article 22.3 job. I hope this doesn't change but for the wife and I we truely enjoy being alone together. We spend our weekends together most of the time and when we get week days off together we go do things together. I know this isn't the case for many married couples. We just had friends with two young kids call us to do something last weekend. We went out with them that night all had a few and the wife and I both told them separately. We totally understand if you guys want some alone time. Don't feel like you have to ask us out everytime you get rid of the kids for a day or weekend. They both had the exact same reply. "The truth is we don't like each other all that much and it's terrible just being alone together." For someone like them (if they stay married) retirement will be miserable. I'm sure as it gets closer to retirement the excuses will start flowing for both of them. [/QUOTE]
