Quotes to ponder:
"It’s not having what you want. It’s wanting what you’ve got." -Sheryl Crow
"Money is a tool. A tool that is meant to be exchanged for things that are of value."
"Once we were able to look at our spending at a high level, we quickly saw that we had more than enough to spend on our wants - at least the wants that really added value to our lives."
