Fun fact. There a lots of discussion in financial spaces that the money doesn’t stop the worry.
It does remove many actual issues though.
Yes, but someone worrying about property tax increasing so they might have to take economy instead of business class on their annual Bahamas holiday, is not the same kind of worrying as:
“Oh fuck if Trump cuts this program then I’ll have no choice but to crash at a friend’s place or live in my car”.
Id argue the real sense of worry is by living a life style below your means. As someone who has had to live pay check to paycheck, but has been fortunate enough to have a substantial increase in salary, dont spend all your money. If you dont change your habits with new money, the worry will fade away.
You can stop keeping strict budgets on things and make them more vague. As long as savings account keeps going up, the worry fades
What actually stops the worry is social security, such as state welfare or having a partner that earns a salary as well. This way, there is backup.
