[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s hard in this world of uncertainty and especially around healthcare. My health insurance costs about $50K a year for the family and just went up 10% in a single year. When they covered the UHC CEO murder, they profiled a young man with a debilitating condition that cost &1M a year to treat. I’m in my 50s but given my family history will live another 40-50 years. Private college costs close to half a million now, and it seems like lots of kids now need grad school. OTOH, I have a sibling who is 60 with zero saved so I know how lucky we are in comparison. Part of my “calming my financial anxiety” thing is to tell myself that if my money runs out, there is a bottle of tequila, a bottle of anti anxiety meds, and a warm bath. I know that sounds morose but I feel like that’s empowering if that’s my worst case scenario. [/quote]
