Totally agree with you. That is why you should work hard in your career, save and invest a lot so that you can retire in your 40s. There are corporate high flyers who are extraordinarily successful and they retired before reaching 50. They then spend their time being angel investors, helping start ups to succeed.

Spend within your needs and enjoy what you can afford now I say. There is no point slogging through the most of your life so just that you enjoy the twilight years of your life. This is definitely not living your life to the fullest!
Remember, most people don't regret the things they have done, but everyone regrets the things they have not done!
