Itâs also the Schmidtsâ 401(k).
Itâs part of a lifestyle change that Mark and Heidi Schmidt and their children, Hunter and Emily, made nearly five years ago.
Schmidt said, âWeâre from Pennsylvania. My previous jobs kept me away from home six months out of the year. The pay was good, but there was no time with my wife and kids.â
He said, âMy 401(k) wasnât doing anything and there is no loyalty in corporate America. I always wanted to own a toy store. So we started saving money for a toy store. We put our house up for sale and got a call an hour later that someone wanted it.â
