When your needs are met it leaves room to create your own goals without the constant pressure of survival.
Highly recommend.

I have less money in the bank than when I was unemployed, but I'm more willing to spend it because I know there's more coming in. It's a lot easier for me to just buy whatever food I want or get decent beer and not worry about it.

I can't meet my current needs without working, I can't meet my long term needs without working overtime. At least with my current job and some overtime hours I should be able to afford a small house as a solo adult. Once that is paid off I would really like to consider working less than full time hours.
