From TFA:
To be honest, I wasn’t even taking pleasure in my disposable income. Most of my extra cash went toward medicating my work stress. Because I wasn’t getting satisfaction from my job, I distracted myself with overpriced restaurants, tropical vacations and retail therapy. I traded up to a bigger, nicer apartment, but I didn’t spend much time in it because I was always at the office justifying my paycheck.
