I found this article on CNN
http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/03/20/bus....ap/index.html

Do you agree with it?
What are your thoughts?

my first thought is "Oh brother, cry me a river!" It may not be the same, but people with a million $$ or more still 'live' better than most of US do. I understand the point of the first person profiled, but I also believe with proper planning, investiments ect, she can still do all the things she needs to do.

I understand what they are saying, but I'd sure like to have that much in the banlk!! I know there's inflation and that the costs of college and retirement have changed, but still. . . .I'd love to have their worries!! i could make a million dollars do a lot for me!

I totally agree that a million is not what it used to be, but I do think that someone should be able to live off it!
