We're working on going about as close as we're going to get to being completely "unreachable" as it were, in the house that I'm building. My ultimate aspiration is to be able to survive year to year by my own means, and that includes supporting my family.

Unfortunately, my wife has a typical consumerist attitude, but she's learning. She's already unlearned the lessons her Father taught her about being frugal, and how you can't have anything if you don't spend money. Hell, I don't even have to work hard for most everything we've got. I just wait for the proper opportunity. There's something to be said for being patient, ya know?
