[quote=Anonymous]I want a balance, but I will say this: A few years back, I would have said "experiences" were my number one priority, both for me and my kid. But Covid altered that for me quite a bit. I still love travel and think it's great to spend money on doing things. But I realized how much happiness and fulfillment I can get out of very, very simple experiences, like spending an afternoon reading a book or baking with my kids. Just very simple pleasures that don't require a ticket or any travel. But that experience also made me realize the enormous value of living in a pleasant, clean home that has creature comforts. It makes you realize that spending a bit of money on stuff like nice sheets, or really comfortable clothes that are appealing to wear, isn't just shallow and pointless. It really makes life better. So yes, I think a good balance between them and I no longer think there is some kind of superiority to experiences over things, though I used to.[/quote]
