How Much Will You Sacrifice To Get What You Want?
A few days ago, there was a big drawing for the Powerball lottery -- a whopping US$1.6 billion. Alas, I was not one of the 3 lucky winners who will split the pot three-ways.
I'm sure many people were day dreaming what they'd do with that money even when the odds of winning was published at 1 in 292 million. So forget the old adage, one in a million! Those odds were far worse.
Back to reality! I was reading about a couple who downgraded themselves from their apartment to living in a trailer for 7 years in order to save for the dream house they wanted. For most of us, we live as comfortable a life as we can afford and save what we can in hopes of socking away enough to afford retirement and a few other things we might want -- whether it's college education for your kids to a nice vacation or a dream home. But would you ever contemplate choosing to live in a trailer home for however many years it will take for you to save till you have what you need to achieve your dream purchase?
This discussion is of course purely about the purchase of material goods and not some existential discussion about happiness and what money can or cannot buy. But really, would you be willing to take that trade-off and go live in a trailer home for years on end? That's commitment!
I am truly curious to learn if you'd be willing to do this and for how long.
