I am a big saver. I’m 29 with a combined net worth of about $500k (with my spouse). $300k is stocks $200k is home equity.

I am always on the fence of just coasting and saving while we slave away at our 9-5 or actually pursuing passions that might be risky in terms of slowing down the growth of our retirement number.

Are most of you just on the idea that you want to coast by working 9-5 jobs or taking risk and increasing income by pursuing some kinda passion?
