I retired in 2010 (yeah!). In 2010 and 2011 I did get a lot of it re-invested, even though it was rising the whole time. In hindsight, although my personal situation made me desire retirement, it would have been financially more astute to keep working and investing my salary during 2010 and 2011 and 2012. My Predicament.

Apparently, consumers spend more when they use a credit card in place of cash. We use a rewards credit card for almost every purchase we make. Could I save even more money if we stopped using credit cards altogether and started using cash? How much money could we save if we start using cash?
