i guess the purpose of saving up money is to be financially independent to make your life HAPPY... no matter how you gonna spend your money, as we are all different... as long as you are happy MAKING and also happy SPENDING... definitely not making, saving and not spending happily... you only get to live once... too much restriction on your life is not too good...

i would spend on both bags and holidays... =P

Sorry to be harsh. If you're happy making money and spending money, there will be a high probability that you're not gonna be financially independent wink.gif

that's not harsh... i guess it depends on individual still... i am happily making money and happily spending money too... and i am 100% financially independent...

100% financially independent for me means I'll be able to afford my current lifestyle without working for others. This is achieved through earning -> saving -> investing -> earning -> saving/spend -> investing and so on.

I guess it does depend on individuals nod.gif

ohhhh... so you want to retire early? at what age?
I'm aiming 40. After that I dont want to work for money anymore.

Most probably I'll jump into academia, give talks or setup my own small business from home just to keep my brain fresh and make some teh tarik money smile.gif
