Since I work from home I spend my extra time to cook healthy affordable meals. I barely drive and try to use my bike pretty much everywhere. Having the time to really do what I want gave me the opportunity to spend way less money on "idiot materialistic consumer things".



Could it be that soon you're just spending that money on other things as clearly your preferences have changed?


Definitely. But as a general trend my money will be spent on more meaningful "things" or experiences and not on the mindless stuff that I used to sometimes spend it on during my previous busy life. What I mean by this is I will buy less of fast food, gas, fashion, bars and more on experiences, travels and other hobbies.
