I often feel sick to my stomach whenever I spend any substantial amount of money, and I never enjoy it. It's just who I am. I value security and peace of mind much, much more than things, and I just could never live paycheck to paycheck. It would kill me. I try to live significantly below my means, with the exception of things that are required for the health, happiness, and well-being of my family. I'm not in any way passing judgment on anyone. I just wonder how people sleep at night with debt hanging over their heads.

If you have savings that you've properly earned and saved, and you're providing for your family and any future financial needs, why do you feel badly about spending money?

Are you suggesting that you can't go out for a nice meal with your family and enjoy it? Take a vacation in your favorite place? Pay to purchase tools or equipment to enjoy a favorite hobby or recreation?

Just curious.
