Though the role model bit doesn't ring true for me. I grew up around Dave's but through my own desire to learn good saving habits I'm an Adam. Thank goodness for the internet and blogs such as this one, or I would have had a harder time learning how to get where I am. I guess you could say I went out and found my own role models once I became an adult and I suggest everyone looks for great ones too. Good post. Though the role model bit doesn’t ring true for me.

I have had friends and have been myself like both of the friends in some point of my life. I like to think I am a saver now, or at least I am setting my financial blueprint now. Excellent post!

Sorry, couldn't resist. ;) Good lesson. I wish I had read this post when I was 23. Except, when Adam went bankrupt, the government taxed Dave at a higher rate and gave it to Adam.

Many people wonder how I was able to retire at age 49. It was because of my financial blueprint or some may say life style. You have hit the nail on the head.
