TODAY'S QUESTION: How do I stop feeling scared about money all the time? I'm objectively in a great financial situation. Despite that, every time I hit a new financial milestone, the goalpost just moves. It went from "I'll feel less worried about money with a 3-month emergency fund" to 6 months to 9 months to 12 months to 12 months assuming my expenses were higher than they currently are.  I feel like a dragon compulsively trying to build a pile of gold that will never be enough. I never feel comfortable. I never feel secure. I'm hyper aware that one medical emergency could drain that emergency fund and put me right back where I started. I know this is a privileged problem to have when so many people are in such bad financial situations, but it's a problem nonetheless. Since I've gotten my finances under control, I feel like I should be able to relax a little bit and leave things on autopilot and just... enjoy being alive and able to pay my rent? But instead I constantly feel anxious about money and I don't know how to break out of the cycle. Do you have any advice?  LIKE THIS SHOW AND WANT US TO KEEP DOING IT?
