[quote=Anonymous]I used to. I live within my means now, but something changed me in recent years. Not sure if it’s covid or old age or what. I no longer have any desire to die with a huge pot of money. My boomer parents have always lived frugally and I will inherit millions most likely. I think they are foolish for not having enjoyed life more. I now don’t blink going on luxury vacations, my new and safe SUV, American made interior designed house etc. Granted my husband and me are relatively high earners with not too large of a mortgage. Together we put around $90k into 401ks each year (includes match) and my husband receives another $80-100k in stock awards. We try to invest another $20k. So that’s around $200k going into the market each year plus home equity. I spend the rest of it enjoying life. Frequent babysitters, luxury hotels, designer clothing etc. [/quote]
