I’m 31, living in a pricey city, and recently my life has been all about investing and saving. After years of struggling with debt and low pay, I finally landed a great job, then started a consulting business that took off. Now, I’m making more than I ever dreamed—about $300K a year. But here’s the thing: I’m so focused on catching up with my retirement savings that I’m skipping out on things that matter. I’ve been saying no to trips, adventures, and even hesitating about joining my girlfriend’s family in France this summer because I’m worried about spending too much. Even though my finances are in the best shape ever, I can’t shake the feeling that I’m still behind. Has anyone else felt this way? How do you balance saving for the future with actually living your life now? I’d love to hear your advice because honestly, I’m feeling pretty lost. 😟✈️💰 #WorkLifeBalance #FinancialStress #CareerGrowth #JobCareer
