Thanks, Gene, for the clarification and details. I find your experiences
interesting and valuable.
I wanted to support one point you made when you wrote:
>The key is NO reprimand for failure.
I extend it beyond that when we're talking about S.I.D. (Sidney's
Impossible Dream) goals. Not only is there no reprimand for failing to
meet SID (stretch) goals, but in fact there is reward!
The "reasonable" goals, on which financial planning is based, if achieved
should generate reward. Then, for any achievement beyond those "must
have" goals, there should be incremental reward -- and the closer to the
SID goal you get, the higher the reward should be.
