This is my FIL to a tee...

he is exactly this guy. Still saves the money he and my MIL collect from pensions and SS. Lives on a very tight budget for no reason other than he simply does not like to spend money. It will be nice for my wife and her two siblings when the time comes to inherit.

It says be able to stop working not that you must stop working.

Baron

Freedom to do what though? Stop working? Buy stuff? Help people? Spoil kids?
