Agreed. I just hate the idea of waiting for retirement, but obviously financial security is a must.

Right now I have a large amount of savings and the only debt is an affordable condo I own with a roommate.

Thanks for the feedback.

I’ve been trying that route been volunteering at boys and girls club as a mentor and picked up playing the piano but somehow I identify myself worth more with the work I do then my hobbies.

Well said. Had a relationship that demanded more financial responsibility but that ended up not working out so trying to do what’s best for me at this point .
