Default Re: Wealth: all in the mind?

John,
Completely understand where you are coming from. I always find myself wishing I had more and more money, but it's not like I really even spend nearly close to the amount of money I'm pulling in. It doesn't make any sense, but it seems like the more I make the more I want, even though I'm not even spending much of it.

Some of the things I'm realizing is that there are times I'm probably better off just not worrying about it, spending some money, and enjoying the ride. Things like vacations, nice dinners, clothes, are some things that I spend some money on now that I never would have even 2 years ago. I still don't spend a crazy amount, but it sure as hell makes me enjoy working towards making more money when I can actually ee the fruits of my labor.

Also, completely agree. It's the journey towards achieving your goal that is the fun part, not actually getting there. Just enjoy the ride, I have a feeling we are all going to look back to posts like these 5 or 10 years down the road and smile about "the way it was."
