No, that’s not sarcasm. It is indeed commendable to know how to enjoy your money in the moment, which is something that eludes nearly all financial worrywarts. Spenders tend to skew younger, without families to feed or mortgage payments to make, so you may just be getting started on your long-term financial plan. (No shade, everyone starts somewhere!)
