Finding the right balance between penny-pinching and splurging is tricky. There's an old motto, "Live well within your means", that has two meanings, and both are important. After the mandatory expenses like rent and basic food are covered, I'd recommend saving half and spending half. You know how bad going broke can get, but working hard all your life and not enjoying any of the benefits from working can be pretty bad too. My aunt's friend was a secretary her whole life, she never traveled or splurged and only ate at a restaurant once a week, when she died her niece got about $200,000 worth of Alcoa stock, I think she would have been happier if she'd spent half of that on herself. I do hope you get your house and garden someday, you're making good progress so far.
