171 - Should I Save My Money For The Future Or Spend it Today?

Scott and James discuss if you should save your money for the future or spend it today. NEW: We're on YouTube here! Listener Question: I am 40 years old and want to know how I am doing. I have been through a divorce and a major job change and have been saving as much as possible, but it seems like I may have gotten to a place where I may be able to save less aggressively. I would really love to be able to retire comfortably at 60 but also live my best life now without over-saving and missing out on today. I have an old 401k, current 401k, Roth IRA, HSA and brokerage account. I know my numbers very well: budget/spending, savings/savings rate, net worth, etc. Planning Points Discussed Utilizing Time Efficiently Capital Appreciation Purchasing Power Other issues (IRAs, Inflation, Financial Goals, etc.) Timestamps: 2:30 - We're on YouTube HERE! 4:15 - Summary of Goals 10:02 - Comprehensive Financial Planning 17:38 - How Much To Save/Spend Today? 22:32 - Aligning Your Financial Goals LET'S CONNECT!
