The title says it all. There truly is a paradox of when you think about your financial future too much it does really start to affect your perceptions of the present negatively.
At 23 years old with maxed out TFSA, RRSP, and over 80K CAD in total net worth I still feel discontent, whereby the most conservative growth estimates this would be more than enough to live for when I become 65. I should be happy, right? No, not actually, beyond personal finance, I feel I have no other hobbies/interests. Has anyone felt like this before? Coming from a poor background, I was always made known that we didn't have enough and I think that has indirectly caused me to be extremely prudent with my finances to a fault. Has anyone had the same experience? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
EDIT: Thanks for everyone's comments, testimonies, and advice, I really appreciate it! This 2022 I'm really going to make an effort to find new interests/hobbies, expand my social circle, and live life more in general!
I've realized what I have is reasonably enough for now, so I will start to ease of what I save/invest, and even ease up further when I reach that 100k mark. I don't want to look back and realize all of what I've been doing is looking at my damn net worth.
