Are you worrying that you don’t have enough or won’t have enough later? Any way you can set your life up so it feels like you’re kinda-retired now even though you aren’t so you get a taste of it? (ie. like not working nights or weekends or looking for more passion-filled jobs…). Hopefully you’re *over* worrying and just trying to speed things up, but either way I know it’s not fun :( Another idea is connecting up with a financial advisor and having them reassure you that all is good! Or point you in a better direction if not!

I need to stop worrying so much about them! I think about our finances most the day i. e. How can I make more money, what is my next side hustle, what don’t I know yet and how do I learn about it. We’re 33 but I can’t wait for retirement! Also…I need to get started on our will too :)

An area of my finances where I need help is retirement planning and tax optimization when the time comes. I also need help surrounding proper rebalancing and asset allocation.

One area I need to focus more on is paying off debt. I know what and how to do it, I just need to focus and get it done. One area I definitely need more education in is investing.

How about keeping a “house fund” where you both contribute to, but then spend/save any remaining money however you wish? That’s what we did when we moved in together before getting married :) (where now everything goes into the “house fund” and then divvied out from there…)
