Well, what’s done is done. I was planning to bail, back in my 30’s, but changed my mind, and stayed for almost 27 years.

It still makes more than I spend, but we’ll see what the future brings.

That’s the great thing about saving, even if you do it suboptimally, it still is a lot better than the opposite.

And in hindsight it’s almost always suboptimal.

You can do insanely stupid things of course.

But saving in some remotely rational and diversified way is better than not saving at all even if some bets turn out to be better than others.
