You need what you have got

columbine flower

During the good times, people tell you that you need to put cash away for three months living if you lose your job. During bad times like now, some will tell you that you need the cash to live for two years.

A lot of people also ask how much money they need to retire. My answer is that you need what you have got. If you’ve got a lot you still need more. If you’ve got a little, you still live. We make do what we’ve got.

The purpose is to achieve balance of your mental state. You need to worry some about your finances. But once a while, you should let go and release the burden.
