The money “rules” may be very simple such as “do not spend more than what you earn,” “live below your means,” “invest early” and so on. However, simple is not the same as easy and therein lays our struggles.

After several trials and errors, I am sure you will find a balance that will allow you to enjoy the fruits of your labor, without sacrificing a comfortable future. After finding that balance, you will still need to recalibrate it from time to time—that’s what life is all about.
