Really not trying to hijack here but there are people out there (from many different fields of endeavors) making 250K - 500K each and every year that are broke and living paycheck to paycheck.

Lack of discipline is their primary problem.


Listen to Dave Ramsey sometime and absorb how some people who have very good income streams live their lives, in debt up to their eyeballs, swimming in debt and no structured discipline what so ever.

Jim, I agree. Between Dave Ramsey show and my more disciplined wife, we're doing just fine, thank God. Left to my own devices I'd probably be in a situation myself. Once I saw a thoracic surgeon (think 1M/year) crying in the call room. I thought he had lost a patient. No, he was literally crying over his debt, much of it self imposed, no doubt. It's that lifestyle thing again.
Sorry, hijacked again.
