We are just waiting until our youngest daughter starts college.
Sounds like a cool idea. But before you make any rash decisions, watch Lost in America, a 1985 film starring Albert Brooks.
And remember, as the film reminds us all too painfully, the nest egg is a sacred thing!
I have not seen the movie but I have heard about it. No problems about a nest egg because we don't have one and probably will never be able to have one. Every time we have started to save money, some emergency pops up. Unlike the movie, my husband and I do not have very lucrative jobs. After 26 years in the military, it seems like we have nothing except a lot of stuff that is falling apart. Besides, we sort of lived a nomadic lifestyle in the early parts of our marriage because the military kept moving us around the country.
