True, there must be a balance for that very reason unless you're very fortunate to have already made it and don't have that concern. Just the same, find a way to save and/or invest while still doing some of the things you want to do. It doesn't necessarily have to be extravagant to have some quality times.

The other day, we went to the local boat show in a nice area just south of us. We met some great people and got excited about the fact that we are now actually moving forward working a toward our goal.

Afterward we went to dinner, had a few drinks and watched the boats, large and small depart, and the sun set over the Gulf.

Food, drinks, fuel, admission we spent less than +/- $150.00 for a great day!

Like I said, it doesn't have to be flashy to be fun.
