What do you want the money for? I "like the money" - but can break it down into a load of "reasons" 1) I'd like to retire and enjoy life. I'll happily obsess over pension pot sizes, incomes, retirement dates and all the rest. 2) Paying off the mortgage. If I stop earning, I'll be homeless. Once I've paid that f'er off, I can choose to do things I want to do, rather than have to. 3) "Cock-waving" - If I earn more than somebody, I'm "better" than them. Or conversely, if I feel I'm better but earn less - rage. What makes me feel better is actually thinking about my goal. Day to day I'll get obsessed with the minutiae, but stepping back I realize I'm pretty easy going. I want to pay off my existing house, have the ability to cover by relatively simple costs until I pop my clogs, and have freedom. You mention "your goal" - what is it, and why have you chosen it?
