Agree re: put money away for taxes - I've made the mistake of not doing that in the past and it leads to more problems.
As for conservative - general plan is to put enough money into 3-fund portfolio to be 'set for life' - then be a bit more aggressive with the rest. Agree with diversify. Keeping quiet is good - agree re: think like old money.
I do need to figure out how to treat a bit. Today we decided to splurge on $120/visit weekly housekeeping - too extravagant?
I plan to work for the next 30 years because I like it. I'm around 40 - but we'll see how it all goes.
