A majority of us have this typical idea that in order to earn more, we also have to continuously work our butts off.

by Jamie McIntyre

Real wealth means that you can live your life fully, spending quality time with your family and friends, taking trips to exotic locations, or enjoying close-to-home adventures on your boat or at your mountain cabin. If you're working 45 or 59 hours a week at a job you hate, coming home exhausted and angry every night, then spending your one week of vacation doing chores around the house ... you're not really living.
