OP here. That’s was bit of exaggeration but I save majority of my money. I live in a paid off condo my parents bought as their vacation home in VA. I make roughly $400k and live on about $40k a year. I have no debt and don’t buy things I don’t need. I pay them a small rent fee, utilities, household necessities, food, and phone bill. I spend roughly 2500-3000k a month. Some months I spend more. I’ve been able to save a ton during the pandemic with everything closed down. I’ve been able to save a large amount of money by living like this. [/quote]

I think it’s going to be hard to find someone to match your level of frugality which is pretty extreme, and maybe even unhealthy (you need to have some risk tolerance to grow wealth.). But certainly you can find someone who is closer to your values, as it sounds like she takes money for granted which is an opposite extreme and a recipe for disastrous marriage.  If you do stay together, several counselors/therapists have premarital sessions they offer to go over these issues so you know going in what your beliefs are.[/quote]

OP, I have a feeling the issue is you. Your lifestyle is unhealthy and if you continue this you will wake up one day and realize life passed you by. I’m a former FIRE enthusiast and realized how much I missed out on. I’m now incredibly wealthy almost 10 million and 40 and have no one to share it with. Sure I can find a girl to marry but she will be doing it for money and now I feel to old to have kids. I’m very depressed. For the love of god keep this girl, but her the house, have babies and learn to be happy[/quote]

Good to see OP’s fiancé checking in.[/quote]
