Hey, thanks for the informative and well thought-out response!
I haven't checked this thread in awhile, so thanks to the other responders as well.
I find it interesting and encouraging that the younger generations are typically really giving a lot of thought as to how they want to live their lives, rather than trying to fill in the mold that their parents set out for them. I think, of course, that there will be as many different answers as there are individuals answering the question, but what is most interesting is that items which used to be considered status symbols, like a huge house and expensive automobile, are now being looked at as baggage that holds us back from what we'd really rather be doing with our lives. I think that is a really healthy way of thinking.
Good discussion! Thanks for enlightening me on your perspective.
