It’s always a tricky decision when do you treat yourself to an unforgettable experience, and when do you play it safe and stash the cash? I’ve been wrestling with this lately, especially with a few big-ticket items on my wishlist (hello, dream vacation and fancy kitchen remodel). But as someone who also values financial security, I can’t help but wonder where the line is.
How do you all approach this? Do you have a rule of thumb, like saving a certain percentage before splurging? Or do you prioritize experiences that feel truly once-in-a-lifetime? I’d love to hear how you strike that balance between living fully today and preparing for tomorrow.
