This is actually quite sad, because I am skilled and I do work hard, yet feel that I will never get rewarded adequately for it and will forever be tied to proving myself daily, never being able to find a balance point to rest. It is not a sign of a healthy economy when those who work hard, don't get rewarded, whilst some who do barely anything, get overrewarded.
I do get these feelings from time to time but again I will try to look on the bright side and know that there are far more people that would die to be in the position I am today, doing what I do and earning what I earn.
we have to consistently not only save money, but be willing to spend money on investments
I'm getting the first part right but having so much trouble with the second part. Not sure why, might be the upbringing in my family, but I'm very hesitant to part with the hard-earned money be it with investments or anything else 😖
This is true! There are also people who want the results, but don't want to do the work :)
I struggle to save. It is strange at times, as I know better, but my habits are not "naturally" geared for good financial health. Legacy of my parents I guess.
But you're doing it right by investing in the future!
Time will tell 😁
