In 2023 my wife and I saved up ~$60k to have a year away travelling on our honeymoon. We could have used the funds to buy a property instead, but we decided that experiences create lifelong memories. Do I regret travelling and not getting into property sooner? Absolutely not, seeing the world gives you a whole new, enriching perspective on life.
