It's a catch 22 no matter how you look at it.
One who despises working mostly for that dreaded money....now must think about working A TON to bank sufficient money for the future, a safety net.
What amt of money that is will be so personal to each one.
Cause no 2 people truly ever agree on money matters, from making it to spending it to saving it and investing it LOL
Money is a big fight issue for many HAHA
Thing is only the 20 something asking that question knows the answer because I am older and have my OWN philosophy on how to make money, bank it, spend it etc.
Now if you ask me what would I personally do when I was 20.....well that would be my personal outlook on life and how I needed to live it to fit my life plan...…...so for me at 20 it was work like a demon. Bank the heck out of everything I made. Luckily I am a very frugal/minimalist type so I would spend big on what I wanted, say a boat or ?? that I loved to do in life and enjoy my life exactly how I wanted all the while being frugal in a ton of other areas to bank for older age.
Cause one thing I knew was I didn't mind getting older, I just never wanted to be older and poor. I would do the best of my ability to make sure that didn't happen but as we know, no one can totally control life so....
I did not want to be free on the road when younger. I camped all the time. I went camping with our boat
truck camper and pull the boat and enjoyed the heck out of water sports, fishing and more and it was our fab down time after working hard and paying bills to live in a decent home etc.
But my mind was on later down the road also. Bank for true freedom when the time came and we desired just that. Pay off a nice home and when the time was right, sell it. Cash in hand, just like a bank account truly, assets in my mitts when sold. Put most of it away for another home down the line if wanted to get off the road when very old, or find that perfect location we would love to live when out and about wandering thru different locations. Options, money gives you options. Take some of that money and use it to pay for bills on the road etc.
So what I did at 20 and my own life plan won't usually fit others. It is very personal.
So my answer is work. Bank like a demon. When I hit about $250K in the bank I would feel a lot safer.
plus remember what dreams you do want to pursue could cost money to do just that so....
No one will fund your life. It is up to the person to fund their own life and it is all based on what ya want, how you want to do it, how you want to live. What sacrifices you are willing to make for what you desire. Those things won't ever change. Responsibility of it all sits at your doorstep.
eh. just some thoughts
