How to Reframe Intentional Spending Decisions as Investments

Lake: I'm having to constantly remind myself that money is for spending, like it's a currency. If i have a hard time spending now, when i make multiple six figures, how am i ever going to be ok with spending when i've got little income? Remember that you are ultimately training your brain right now for the future. It's very easy to fall into that habit and believe that you're doing this noble or right thing by spending as little as possible. But then essentially screw over your future self, because you're not going to be able to enjoy that money later on.
