Ya exactly. The idea that fun should come at the expense of giving yourself a safety net is hogwash. I spent the first 25 years of my life living in poverty. The difference between people who stay in poverty and the people who leave is knowing that a stable foundation is more important than anything else in life
The way I do it I have a safety net but yolo on the credit card for vacations and fun stuff. Then have to budget later to fix it all haha
