I think we tend to overanalyze life, who knows what such stressors contribute to ones physical decline.

We save, but we travel a lot. Would we be more ahead financially if we didn't? Of course, but I wouldn't change it for anything.

I'm happy I'm getting to experience so much of the world while in my 20's and now mid 30's, while I'm still relatively young and healthy. I see friends that miss out on traveling in order to only save, thinking they can have these experiences when they're older/retire.

The problem is you won't be the same person physically in those latter years. You may not be able to do the activities you once thought you would, perhaps they won't even interest you at that point.

At the end of the day we only get one life to live, you can't hit the reset button and do it all again, you might as well enjoy it to the utmost you can.
