Day 27: Should I Save for Tomorrow or Live Today? – 30 days, 30 episodes

The Life Shift

Today, I share my uncomfortable truth about money and how I manage it as I navigate life. Should I be saving for the future or enjoying the present? Growing up with a father who worked multiple jobs instilled a strong awareness of financial stability. However, as I hit my 40s, I wonder if I'm living life to the fullest while still being safe with my finances. I share my internal struggle about spending versus saving, especially considering what it means to truly enjoy my life now rather than deferring all gratification to an uncertain future.

How can we make the most of our resources while also ensuring we’re not just waiting for the end of our lives to enjoy what truly matters?

Takeaways:

• Life is too short; we shouldn't waste time and should pursue what we love.
• It's crucial to find a balance between saving for the future and enjoying life today.
• I often avoid spending money on experiences because I fear running out later.
• Middle age comes sooner than we think, so it's important to live fully now.
