About two months from the time of this conversation.
22
We are going on a trip to Italy in about two months.
What the. Hold on. That's awesome. Okay, round of applause. What are you two in particular excited about?
Generally just travel. When she was growing up, she went on a vacation. I did not go on my first vacation until I was 22.
Has this gotten kind of the juices flowing in terms of, like, ooh, where else might we go?
Exactly that.
Well, okay, so Italy is the big one for this year. Next year is renovating our backyard, and.
Then the year after that is Japan.
Is there some reason that you take one trip per year?
We don't even do that.
Yeah. Is there a reason for that?
When I look at our numbers, I think we're behind on saving for retirement. I want to focus more money towards retirement.
Yeah, Good. The one thing that neither of you are really excited about, you want to focus on that thing that lights you two up. Let's wait another 10 years to do that.
