Have a really insightful discussion going on my other thread,
http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...-happy-)/page5
following a similar theme in this one. Yea pretty much going through a phase in life where these questions keep popping up (the time between landing a job and settling down permanently)
So what do people consider as too little spending on yourself ? Or too much saving ?
I personally am quite happy with how much I spend/save presently, but I can spend quite a bit more and have more fun, which are the basis of complains from some friends and family members who ofc don't see the whole picture cuz I don't live lavishly or anywhere close to what I can afford. Though I am saving for a mortgage and stuff, so I find the reactions a bit ill informed, but are they correct in telling me that I should spend more, if so what would be a good balance as far as spending / saving is concerned (Save 30%, Spend 70%)?? Think this mainly depends on circumstances, so people will respond differently but am still interested in how people feel about this.
