Early 40s. For me personally, it’s not really an attitude that only comes with age. My wife and I completely earned our financial status ourselves. And we always did what suited our life situation at the time. Long-distance travels and city trips in our late 20s to mid-30s. (I crossed the Alps when I was 30 :D ) In between, two fully self-paid weddings (registry office and church ;) ). Then came the child and Corona and we saved massively (both also had a major career leap during the Corona period). And then we built the house. Nothing is spared on our daughter. But nothing is spent senselessly either (the first 4 years only second-hand clothes from her cousin). Shortly after building the house, my wife fulfilled her dream of owning a horse. I recently got myself a new e-mtb. The car is 7 years old and will be driven until it falls apart. All expenses are experience-oriented. Never purely status symbols. We have always managed well with that. It’s possible others have more money than us when they are 60. But I don’t feel like the prime time of my life has to be just before retirement, for which I would have to give up a lot for years beforehand.May I ask?
