millionaires in the making... so they say...

just saw this on fortune.com

it profiles a 27 year old couple in SF whose goal is to retire by the age of 40 as millionaires. besides the typical property investments and only eating out once a month + sharing entrees and wearing hand me down clothes to save money, the wife/chick says she feels awkward when she complains about splitting the checks with her family n friends at dinners when she only ordered an appetizer and tap water. WTF

i don't know how people live like that... the irony is that those who think they're saving and investing smartly are the first ones to lose all of it through what they consider to be "calculated risks" or "investments." if you're so smart, why not invest in your life, own career and better relationships with those around you?

no offense if the rodrigues couple reads my blog (doub it) but daaaamn, i would never recommend that lifestyle. sounds miserable as f*ck...
