genuine question, does it put a different perspective on life now in regards to being so focused on saving as much as possible and not enjoying your younger years doing more with money?
I watch you and people like Neil invests saving and penny pinching to create this big portfolio which on turn has made me so the same but theres just something at the back of my mind that says to me " I lose all my younger years missing out doing stuff and then I'm old and retired with all this money if I actually get there"
genuine question and genuinely sorry about your mum 🙏🏻

Sorry bro. It’s so hard losing a parent. I’m 45 and lost my dad at 27. It’s weird. I still miss him a lot but with time the rawness isn’t as sharp. Takes time though.

I know it sucks honey. lost Mum a year ago and it's a struggle. One thing that keeps me going is ask yourself what she'd want you to do....? But it's raw for you right now. embrace the pain and be kind to youx

Have you tried chatting with AI about it? I used it to process my died dying. He had dementia so I used it to understand the stage he was at and process my emotions about it. Think of it as a free counsellor!

Lost my mum at a young age also - the heaviness and confusion does pass but don’t let it consume you. Eat/drink healthy, exercise and spend time with your family certainly helps the process

Every word 💔 Unless you’ve gone through it, you just can’t describe it. I lost my mum a year and a half ago and I still feel like my spark has gone. Jimmy Carr says with grief, you don’t get over it. It walks with you every day. Sorry for loss Iain 🙏🏻

There is an app called live note. It’s journaling, but it answers and tracks your journey. It’s really helped me navigate grief. It’s free. It gives you tools, therapy, all sorts to help you through.

I’m sorry to hear man. I’ve never lost anyone close to me yet like that but I know for sure that without support (family or friends) I’d be lost too

I lost my mum at 14 and it does get better i promise. give yourself time and allow yourself the freedom to feel how you feel at that moment. I honestly believe I was in shock /disbelief for the 1st year. ❤️

YEP 1 million %. I am actually furious I have been born. Said this to my dad, raging I was born, I never asked to be fucking born or feel this pain and everything else that has come with losing my mum to a brain tumour 8 weeks ago. Horrific!!!!
