[QUOTE="GettingReady, post: 814990, member: 2868"] Does the depth of the pocket really matter? Most millionaires I know are pretty frugal and they got there because of that. Sure they splurge occasionally but it's not a lifestyle. I venture to say if they thought in terms of "Money is for spending and you only live once..." they never would have made it. This isn't directed at you personally, but that was my parent's attitude and they lived from paycheck to paycheck. My brother and I chose a different path and both of us have a NW over 7 figures. Being a high income earner, he's done way better than me. Anyway, fun discussion and I definitely agree with Matt that there's a slippery slope and it's easy to rationalize. I have more than enough points for our travel needs, so I'm starting to focus more on CB since we're delaying SS. [/QUOTE]
