Thanks Bob 🙂

I appreciate the self reflection – the household I grew up in was a very warm “hugger” type whereas Nic’s family is much more the “cold and distant” type. It’s never too late to add in some extra hugs and warmth!

Isn’t it crazy how so many people fall into this category? Living life on someone else’s terms, it’s so sad eh

Great guess Amanda – and so glad you keep it at the front of your mind. There is a fine line between working to save and invest but also enjoying life along the way.

Thanks Dave!

Great guess – it is true that you hear so often “oh I’ll do that next time” to not have a next time come up

What a sad regret hey – living your life according to someone else’s wishes/desires

Ah awesome! We will be in Lisbon from January 25-29 – let’s meet up! Our itinerary was changing daily for a few weeks but I think we have it all sorted out now. Will write a future post with more details! Feel free to email me at ModernFImily@gmail.com and I’ll send you the itinerary

Great guess – experiences sure do carry more value than more money but it’s so hard for people to grasp that concept!

Great guess Paddy – it is crazy how many hours most people spend at work when you compare it to free time to enjoy themselves!

Great guess Philip – It is pretty crazy how time is our most precious resource yet most of the time we don’t treat it that way.

Fantastic guess – It’s so easy to be consumed in one’s own life – work deadlines, meal prep, gym classes, etc that we forget to reach out to friends and family. It is sad when connections and relationships really are so important.

Aw thank you so much! These words truly do mean a lot 🙂
