[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about helping someone in need? Could be partially funding a college kid's tuition, donating to the Innocence Project, an animal rescue, etc. You might find purpose in designating a certain portion of overage to someone it could really help.[/quote]

Hahaha. You go first.[/quote]

PP here. I do, but on a much smaller scale. I'm helping a few people in Nigeria that have lost their jobs that I knew personally because a $300 donation here and there goes MUCH further than it would here.  I also foster dogs with breaks in between. I don't overcommit, just assist when I have the bandwidth and desire. I have debt that I'm paying off, but sometimes being of service to others adds to my sense of purpose as well.

OP doesn't seem to find much joy in saving and accruing wealth above a certain level. There are a ton of funding cuts happening right now. OP could find a passion project and contribute an amount they're comfortable with to it.[/quote]
