By the way, people are always surprised when I tell them my age. They always think that I'm much younger. My profile pic is current.

I just turned 57 last month and the wife and I have been saving for something "cool" for many years. When the people at work first saw the Z they said, "see, I knew you guys were rich". My wife and I both work in the same place. They don't see the 9 and 10 year old cars we have as DD's.

We were very fortunate that we weren't living paycheck to paycheck like most of the people we work with and were able to save a little here and a little there. At this stage in our lives, we finally said this is what we want a screw everyone else.
