The most important lesson learned after striving to save money at age 30 is understanding balance and not shortchanging oneself! Loving oneself allows for better care of those who matter most.
This post might probably mean that saving is good but not to the extent of letting yourself suffer by not attending to your needs or even special wants because you want to prioritize your financial goals over your own self-care. Although saving and investing could mean a lot as it leads you to a brighter future, but what could be its essence if along the process your own self has been sacrificing a lot, because you focus more on your finances to build a bright and secured future than to prioritize first yourself and all your necessities. Saving is a necessity as well but not to the extent of compromising your self-worth and self-care.Based on my experience there are two kinds of people in this situation, people tend to make more savings and even they suffer for themselves as long as they want to secure their future, they lose a lot of time and memories during those times, the other hand are the people keep enjoying while saving they treasure every time their age added one per year. Personally I'm into the second part that I keep saving adding with the use of investment because not all the years of your life you would like to work you want to enjoy more the life and to do it one factor is you must need to become a financial free to don't think every time you go somewhere just to have money.
