This might be helpful for you, because it was for me:
If you flip the script and
instead of thinking about it as "saving your money" aka "avoid fun and happiness" (because whose brain wouldn't say "nah fuck that"?), think about it instead as
"building wealth".
Building wealth as in taking that money and investing it. Take that cash and stick it straight into an S&P500 index fund, any chance you get. Spam VOO/VFV and just forget about it for the next 20 years. Over a decades long time horizon, historically the S&P500 would gain you 5-8x. How does $136,000 sound to you?!
But in any case, this is already done. No sense in taking away your happiness over something you can't reverse. Congrats and enjoy!!!!!
