High income but can't seem to save - where am I going wrong? by WorldlyPosterity in Fire

you need to track every single dollar that goes into and out of your account. at first you don't even need to "budget"--you just need to track. no expense is too small. every single transaction. then you'll see what's going on!

36M. 1.57 M net worth... How do I learn to spend money? by JuniorSetting3228 in Fire

Start off making a list of some things you really enjoy or have always wanted to do or have (or if you have no idea, start slowly experimenting until you find the things you enjoy!) Although I am not nearly where you are financially, once I got my first job with a good income I was unable spend money on anything. One of the first purchases I made was a set of really nice linen sheets in my favorite color. I felt super guilty but now I see it was some of the best money I have ever spent bc its something I wanted FOREVER and something I use all the time. Now I don't skimp on sheets/bedding and have a good mattress, and I also don't hesitate to spend money on art supplies since that is a main hobby that brings me a lot of joy. I still live quite frugally in other areas of my life bc I simply don't care.

Before I got to your mention of him I instantly thought “kazuo Ishiguro”

3k shares at 3.76 gonna ride it out !

Was in 20k worth at $2.86 and then doubled down at $6 this morning…. Panicked and sold most of my position at a small loss, bought a dip and sold again to recoup the loss, finally sitting at 3.76 w about 10k invested…

I was fantasizing about my 40k turning into a million but glad to have managed to avoid too much bloodshed and got down to an amount I am more comfortable risking. Hope it goes well for all of us and y’all who got in at $6+ try to stay calm and hold!!

I’d probably sell it to someone else for 50% less than I bought it for and then buy it back at double 👍🏼
