My son has a chronic illness, so he has missed out on a lot of living the last few years. Treatments for his illness are out of pocket, and we have a long way to go before he is in remission.
I would give everything I have for him to be healthy. Stuff is just stuff. I wish we could buy time.
We have found the more stuff you get rid of the more time you have.
I remember when we had barely anything and got along just fine without it all cluttering up the house.
We are currently going through everything and putting it all in the garage sale.
I wish you the best with your son and as quick recovery as possible.
A multi-acred really really huge farmhouse with a lake/pond and lots of horses.
This. I'd love to be able to buy a house with land, on a lake. That would be a great place for kids to grow up. No horses for us though. Maybe some more pets though of one kind or another. And a boat or two.
The $6000 summer camps for one (we have twins). $12k for 6 weeks is no joke. Instead we do a camp at around $1500ea for 6hrs/day. Next year will be $2500ea. Anyone else do stupid-expensive camps?
They still have a lot of fun at their camp, especially being with friends they already know, but the higher priced camps offer soooooo many more activities. Zip lines, multiple sports with actual grounds for them, etc. You're only a kid once.
What kinds of things might you purchase if money wasn't as much of a concern as it is today?
Please be reasonable - I'm looking like things like send them to science camp, or buy them a car (if they are teenagers), or examples of toys / collections that you think they'd benefit from, or tutoring or the like.
If money was no object why would I need to be reasonable?
