1) If you're at a point in your life where you can afford it; go crazy. Work your ass off and climb whatever ladder you can climb. Live to the full stretch, travel, party hard but work harder. Don't care about money until you're 30. You will gather experiences that will make you a richer, better person as an investment in the rest of your life.
2) If you have relationships you value, people around you that you love, a future you want to build; do it. Show them your affection, build that better home or that better future.
Both will make you happy.
Some comments were already saying what the point is on saving money when you get some terminal disease and slowly pass away sitting on a pile of cash. Being sick at home for over 3 months makes you contemplate a lot about your current status quo and question the life matter a lot. Why am I stuck here? Why now? What have I done so far that made me crash like this, etc.
A friend made me a striking comment: "I'd be interested in how much momentum your mind gained in this forced downtime." And that's where this is good for in my case: I slowly gain inspiration and frustration about my life, charging a battery which will be set loose once I recover.
