I like your take on this and you are kind to yourself, wish I could learn to take that perspective.

I’m not talking about spending money traveling and on experiences, I think those are worth every penny.

I’m talking about blowing money living paycheck to paycheck instead of growing my savings on designer clothes and modifying cars, etc. trying to look a certain way among people my age and trying to impress the opposite sex.

None of that stuff matters now and didn’t back then in retrospect. I found my spouse partaking in a free hobby.

I guess hindsight is 20/20 as they say, back then I was surrounded by social and single college friends looking to find partners to date.
