Living with little has changed my life

I’m Italian, and they terrified me with the idea that my wealth wouldn’t be enough to live off for the rest of my life (I’m 32 and have €600,000 for sure, plus another €100,000 I might never see again because of loans). In case of a crisis like in 2008, my assets could be cut in half and I could run out of money in 10 years.

So I tried living on less than €1,500 a month (with my own home) to grow my wealth and have more spending power in the future.

I’m living great.

I spend €700 a month and I don’t miss anything.

In the morning I play beach volleyball at the seaside, in the afternoon I read, play videogames, and go for walks. In the evening I meet friends for board games.

I volunteer at a dog shelter 4 times a week.

Life is beautiful even living with little, my friends. Believe in your dreams.
