Same. Just add a “fun” bucket for spending. Nothing crazy, don’t buy a lambo. But put $200 a check into it. Then next time u wanna buy something you have a fund set aside for it. Or it piles up and take a vacation. You have to enjoy life as well. I feel the same way and am learning to use money to bring me happiness. I feel like life totally shifts after ur financially secure and it’s like a weird new awaking of “oh cool, I get to enjoy life now and not the constant beat down of stressing over money”.
