How saving gets me high 💰

I do automatic savings every paycheck. Have done it for years – about half for retirement and half in more mid-term and short-term investments. I don’t really care money alone, for me it’s a means to that off-grid home and farm, my own land where I can have whatever guns I want and  burn barrels for trash and a wood stove. Produce my own electricity with solar. Compost and feed waste. Land that is my own, that I can manage for ecological diversity, hunting and trapping, livestock like pigs and goats for food. And that’s a vision that gets me high with a little dopamine hot every time I get that notice in the email.
