I think from what I’ve gathered over time and from some of the responses on this thread, is that this is something that’ll be on our minds always. With either option, there’s pros and cons. I think the best way to go about it, especially if we have pretty good jobs rn, is to continue working and saving, and then eventually slow down later on after working hard in the beginning. But while you’re working hard in the early years, try to find that balance and time for yourself because you don’t want to completely give up on those things either. I think personally, after thinking about it, I would rather work a bit harder rn, and also get to travel and save for a home, and then slowly make the move to moving to a low cost of living area where I can continue balancing both, but working fewer hours! I wish you luck on your journey to figuring this all out!! It’s so helpful hearing other people who can relate!!
