What to do: have 6 figures in the bank. Buy shiity flat, buy expensive flat or just continue to enjoy number going up. No kids. No hope. Im leaning towards shitty flat because i’d pay it off quickly but if all goes to hell then does it matter?

Genuine question. Current living situation is irritating but cheap.

    Ok forget meaning and happiness. Let’s talk utilitarian. What living space would best fit what you need? If you don’t need much, tuck most of that money in a relatively safe investment and buy whatever you could pay off the quickest. Life is long, you’re going to need that money someday.

      How many bedrooms do I need to be a cat lady? Maybe I can find meaning here… I’m thinking 2, the second one is an extra 80k or so.

        Then go for 2 ☺️ the extra bedroom can be split usage, maybe a spare bedroom for guests, a playroom for the cats, and a small home office. We have 3 cats and they definitely brighten the day. Wish you the best!
