That's my goal over the next few years as I move into retirement mode. A different mind set comes with getting older. I'm done with the accumulation faze. I see my children going through that now. They have sooo much crap they can't move!
That's why storage facilities are popping up everywhere.
Same page again. I just downsized my primary residence in NY and in the process got rid of most that I do not need and I'm 52. Family and friends do come first and my goal now is to make sure I am amply taking care of my childrens financial future.
