[quote=Anonymous]This article had some good advice about taking time to think about what things meant a lot to you/brought you happiness, and concentrating your "fun" spending on those things, and keeping the reins on spending on other things.

"I think the most surprising part is the cornerstone of Sethi's philosophy, which is his idea of a “rich life.” Sethi encourages people to consider what being “rich” means to them, in specific detail, because it turns out a rich life looks different for everyone.

It might be taking a luxury vacation once a year, or tipping 25 percent at every restaurant, or always buying the nice toilet paper. For me, it’s the freedom to eat dinner out at a restaurant a few times a week, cooking with fresh herbs at home, buying ethically made clothing, and spending a few days in New York twice a year.

A rich life looks different for everybody, because everybody has different values and desires. The idea is that once you’ve defined a few aspects of your rich life, you can orient your financial life toward it. Save ruthlessly on the things that don’t matter to you so you can spend intentionally on the life you want. "[/quote]
