Got a friend who lives in a home most would consider a shack. Thing about it is I never hear him complain about much. Always has a smile on his face and a kind word for others. He goes faithfully to his hourly job everyday which does not pay much. He doesn't worry about where to invest his money other than a mower that will run to mow yards to give him a little extra money. He doesn't worry about the price of a new truck and not being able to get one, about estate planning, about capital gains taxes going up, about the price of glyphosate , fertlizer and chemicals, about when to sell his crops and if he lost money by selling too soon, about accumulating enough money to have a comfortable retirement, about the price of landand if it is going to go up or down. The list goes on and on.
In essence, he is a content man. Should we feel sorry for him and others like him or are we the one's to feel sorry for? Just something I think about occasionally and wonder if any of you do?
