There's a subset of things that you're probably going to want to do in your 20s that actually cost a lot less money to enjoy when you're young than they will older when you're older. And also like you might not be able to do them when you're older.
Having like a scarcity mindset where you're constantly worried about not having enough even when you objectively have enough is just depriving yourself of things you could spend money on to enjoy. Again, whether it's material things experiences relationships and like the the things that you can spend that money on that you will enjoy are just going to change a lot. Like the thing you'll enjoy at 25 is different from 35 or 45 or whatever.
I think that we've all come to understand that a baby is a bomb that goes off in the middle of a marriage, but what happens when there's no marriage? It's a bomb that goes off in a friend group, and it catches everybody in the shrapnel.
