Comment on How do you live your life?parent

You're right, fun is cheap. So why spend my fortune when I could retire early instead? To live each day like its your last is to fear living. I will live my life assuming I live to a ripe old age, and will never fear to live another day. The freedom this has brought me and the peace of mind is something no amount of hedonism could replace.

To assume a healthy savings means I must be a miser is unwarranted. Most who are thin are not anorexic.

I will add to my point above that the people in question died in the range of 32-44 years old. What retirement?

What about it? Should I also stuff my face with food every chance I get, because why stay thin if I'm just going to die soon anyway?

Balance, my friend.
