The people I know that have done nothing but work are still doing that in their late 30s, early 40s. They are lonely, bored, and don’t even know who they are or what they like. They’ll do the same thing until their 60s, retire, and die before they touch their money because of the unhealthy habits built when you don’t have time to take care of yourself by doing things that take time like exercising your body, mind, and eating well.

More pathways to being financially secure and living the lifestyle that you want is always good.
FWIW I work 40-60 hour weeks through most of my 20s but still have time to hit gym, take trips 4-6 weeks in a year, date, and try new hobbies.
The big sacrifice is being able to socialize freely and go to random events ... my social time is generally pretty intentional right now.
