My financial advisor told me today that I don't need to invest at the level I have been. "You're doing fine, live a little" he says. Isn't he the one supposed to be encouraging me to save?? *lol*
My philosophy has always been that at the end of the day, working is its own reward. If you're privileged enough to enjoy an affluent standard of living, you have a responsibility to yourself to sock that money away into savings/investments. Don't spend it - at least not all of it, anyway. I only splurge on things I really enjoy, like this hobby, for instance.
Any thoughts on the topic??
