I think trying to save money is the wrong mindset. Life should continue as is. Put aside what you don't need.

If you start spending, you'll keep spending. Once you taste the fancy butter and breakfast on organic non-bleached sourdough, going back to margarine on toast makes you unhappy.

Money, like food, is dangerous. If you're comfortable, more of it just makes you 'fat'. It's harder to dial back to being acsetic later.

However, going through the journey of opulence is something people should try. Buy the expensive chocolates, eat the steaks with gold leaf, sleep at top hotels for absolutely no reason, buy flights to visit the crowded wonders of the world. Just manage expectations that this indulgence is not the peak of your life, but rather a low point.
