> Buy jewelry and fancy things for yourself.
Ugh, "awesome life advice". Treating yourself well doesn't necessarily involve buying things. Consumer culture really is quite insidious. No, I don't need some friggin jewelry to be happy or have a happy life. I don't need to buy my partner a $<too_high> diamond ring.
Treat yourself well by investing in what you actually use- a quality bed, quality pillow, quality shoes, quality clothes, quality tools. You don't need many things to be happy, just a few quality ones. The rest is better served as life experiences like traveling, etc.
