If I could go back and give my younger self some advice, it would be to spend more time on hobbies that don't cost a fortune...🤔

Unfortunately there isn't really a clear answer here. I didn't really accomplish either. I was shy and exclusive and instead of saving I was helping support family and friends. I think I'm at a point where I wish I would have had more financially discipline then though I wouldn't have wanted to just abandon people.
I wish I had done more of both. But I'm also wishing I could get out and live more now. The desire to do so didn't fade with age. Had I been more financially disciplined I'd probably be able to do a lot more now

I didn’t vote cause I believe you should do both

Try to do both... You don't want to be struggling when you're older

Save save ! It’s in your later years you will be thankful that you have it to enjoy.

It's better to go live now. I waited until my late 30's and now I'm super behind. I wish I had not been so responsible early on because it didn't do me any good anyway. Enjoy. Live. Experience. There's always ways to make it.
Life is for living, not just preparing to die.

I'm 50 and wish I'd invested sooner so I could work when I want doing things I want to rather than worrying about a paycheck

You could do a working holuday. Travel to somewhere where you are allowed to work. You are earning and seeing new places at the same time.

I think you should get out there and live a little since you spent your early 20s reclusive, but really there's no wrong way to live your life as long as you're doing something that makes you happy. ^^
I personally want to have experiences and live my life while I still am able to

Do whatever you feel most comfortable with. You can travel and experience new things without breaking the bank.

Save….
Why can you not do both???
Within reason, you should be able to both put aside cash for later in life as well as saving up to get out there and experience things. It might mean that it takes that bit longer between experiences, but it gives you time to really plan and anticipate whatever you're going to do.

It's very individual. I'd say if you are overall healthy, I mean physically and mentally, it's better to get out there and experience the life. Otherwise take it in a slower lane, try to fix what you can first. Small, safer adventures, etc.
Also depends if you have support in your family so you'd have someone to lean on in case things go wrong.

Can’t you do both in moderation? I wouldn’t advise either in extremes.

To work is to live. Filling life with empty things is decay and rot, and a waste of life. Is she to be a mother? What is her purpose? Isn't work and offspring what life is about?
If she devoted everything to saving money, she’d never get to live, and could end up with regret as she became older without a fulfilling life to make it meaningful.

@emiliya She’s a human being with her own perspective in life. Her post conveys the worry of wasting her youth. I am not here to tell her how she should feel with my own beliefs on work, what is a waste, or what life is about. These are for her to decide for herself as it is her life. Not mine. I merely suggested a moderate approach to her problem.

do whatever you want without caring what society thinks
StygianKohlrabi · 46-50, M
@emiliya have you tried looking it up?
emiliya · 26-30, F
@StygianKohlrabi You would be surprised by what they call psychopath nowadays. Hell, they don't even bother calling you sociopath.
StygianKohlrabi · 46-50, M
@emiliya I don't identify as either
