[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks all. Yeah, we try to keep things pretty sane and after paying down the mortgage in a big way, all the new money is going directly into savings accounts. There's no real chance of the money changing our personalities, either. If I'm honest, I think both of us are modest to a fault.[/quote] I'd prioritize putting money into a brokerage account after you max out your 401k, especially if you have a low interest mortgage. It's how you build real wealth. I felt the same way as you OP, for years. I had a bad case of impostor syndrome, having come from a blue-collar family. It didn't change until I had amassed FU money (which I define as enough money to walk away from my career and maintain my standard of living until death). [/quote]
