[QUOTE="Oldfart, post: 2633168, member: 64407"] Sacrifice and conservative living. People can complain all they want about my top out pay and 2 pensions but I didn't wake up 1 day making 28.46 an hour. Sure I was topped out years ago but I still made sacrifices so I could save for my retirement. I lived very conservatively my entire life. Way below my means. NEVER had a new car or a car note. Financed my house for 15 years and sacrificed to pay it off in 13. You can really save a lot of money when you don't have a car note or a house note. I believe in the 12 to 15 years they have paid us for our unused sick days, I have only used 3 sick days. I get that 40 hr check every June. I have even made a little money with the "Lead On" program. I sell on Ebay and Craigslist. You hustle and sacrifice and 1 day you wake up and you have money in the bank and a good 401k. A person can save money no matter how much they make if they live right. I know people that can't make more than 50k combined family income and they live well and I know other people that make 6 figures and stay broke. [/QUOTE]
