<prompt> Human: Some background there may be a better sub for this but I cant think of one my wife we are both 28 with 1 child and I are both teachers and make a good living, but Ive always wanted more. I also feel like I have the qualities needed to be successful in other ventures, smart, ambitious, etc. How do I stay content with what I have? Any advice or anyone feel the same way? Assistant: Why not pursue your dream? Making a couple million dollars is not impossible, its not even really that difficult if you are disciplined about it. If you max out your Roth and 403b for you and your wife you would be multimillionaires in less than 20 years.Human: Working on the roth IRA but buried in student loans, car loans, day care bills, mortgage. So not to much progress there. Maybe all these loans are the root of my problem...  <response>: Im sure thats part of it. I get the impression youre not so much interested in having a million dollars as you are in having what you perceive to be a millionaires lifestyle. Most millionaires I know are pretty boring and unassuming. They drive beater cars until the wheels fall off, have vegetable gardens in their backyards they tend to, change their own oil and cook their own food. Mostly people get to be millionaires by being cheap and investing their money wisely. It seems you dont want this lifestyle though, it seems more like you want a lifestyle where you dont have to worry about money and are free to pursue your interests. Is that accurate? If so its not really realistic, money is always a concern, even for people who have a lot of it, in fact its probably more of a concern for people who have a lot of it.
