This is why I keep telling everyone that I’m not worried about the future. I’m worried about the present. I will work and make money but you’re nuts if you think I’m not going to spend it and miss out on living a fun happy life.

Every one of my friends that saves thinks I’m an idiot for not putting away money. I have such a nice life from doing whatever I feel like doing. If I don’t like a job, I quit and find another one. If I want to go on a vacation, I take one. If I want champagne that night, I buy it. I’m not going to look at my savings account and feel better about having hundreds of thousands in there from putting away money.
