<prompt> Human: Okay... maybe I should rephrase the question, since there really is no such thing as saving too much. Rather, can I afford to live a little more? I know I can, but should I?Its a thing of personal choice, but heres my situation. 22 yo professional female, just started consulting career making 70k. No student debt, car is paid off. Im going to want to lease or buy another car in a year when my lease is up, and pay it all up front. So I do have a savings goal of 10,000, but already have 8000 in savings. Heres a rough breakdown of my monthly budget:-RentUtilities - 1300 yep its a lot but I love where I live-Cable and internet - 70 roommate wanted the pricier one and I had to compromise-Groceries - 140-Restaurants - 120-Gas - 40-DC Metro Uber - 40-Medical and health - 40-Personal care - 40-Dry cleaning - 40-Clothing - 60-Entertainment - 50-Gifts - 40And then 1000 into savings.  <response>: It seems like you need to sit down and figure out some financial goals for yourself. Savings is not a very good financial goal. A couple of examples: 3-6 month emergency fund Retirement Vacations Car HouseCan you afford to live a little more? Well, that depends. You should first ensure that you have a solid emergency fund and are contributing enough towards your retirement. These savings will help you gain a good financial foundation for your future. The emergency fund is easy enough to figure out, but most people dont save enough for retirement.After that it depends on what you want out of life. Would you rather rentown a nicer house and car or retire early? Would you rather eat out regularly or go on more vacations? Do you want kids?
