I hear ya.
If I was rich no one would know it LoL
I live below my means now.
My attitude is along the lines of, if you weren’t willing to know me when I was poor, do you think I would want to know you if I became rich?
Yeah, the lifestyle I want to live doesn’t need gold faucets or anything.
Even the reason why I want a three bedroom condo is so thay I can have one of the bedrooms as a home office and the other bedroom so I can have a real exercise room/hobby room.
My time is important to me and being able to use my time for things I want to do, as opposed to what I have to do, is my personal priority.
