I Live in a $1M Home and Have $3M Saved Up at 50 -- Why Does It Feel Like I'm Behind?
Briefly

The article highlights the negative impact of wealth comparison on personal well-being. It cites surveys indicating significant numbers of Americans living paycheck to paycheck and approaching retirement with no savings. In contrast, those with substantial savings or home equity should feel secure but often experience self-doubt. The message encourages individuals to focus on their own financial achievements and goals instead of measuring their success against peers, as comparisons can be misleading and detrimental to one's financial confidence.
If you're comparing your wealth to other people's, you may be setting yourself up to be disappointed. Focus on the things you have accomplished rather than how much better you could've done.
What if instead of feeling great about all you've accomplished, you're instead struggling with feelings of self-doubt? If that's the case, it's time to get to the root of the problem - and do your best to snap out of it.
