In reply to SMM. I think most people would be shocked at just how little they need to live the best version of their life possible. So much of our lives tend to get cluttered by things that are adding no value, but there's a huge sense of relief and joy that comes with letting go of stuff.

Practicing patience is great advice. We really don’t need much if we really think about it. And even when we do splurge, it’s short-lived and makes us wanting the next thing hot thing to splurge on. 🙂

In reply to Mr Mofi. Thanks, Mr. Mofi! I appreciate the kind words. Personal finance really is a long-term game. Saving and investing takes time and diligence. Best of luck on your own financial journey and stay in touch :)

Great post Zach! This stuff is gold and always helps me stay focused on playing the long game. It’s interesting to see how you compare and contrast the scenarios. When looking back at my last 10 years in the financial wilderness I can now quantify what my choices have meant. Not to say I regret anything, I take full responsibility and have a plan to reach FI within 10 years anyway!
Keep up the intelligent writing, great to have your perspective in the community.
