Is anyone worried about saving/investing too much for retirement leading to loss of personal enjoyment during youth? What if I die before I can use the money I've worked so hard to save?

I’m a 24 year old graduate. Should I quit my job as a private tutor (home-based, 40 students), earns me 6k and can develop into tuition ctr or find job that pays 3.5k? Money VS social life (since I work on nights and weekends, and I’m home-based)?

If you earned enough money to be comfortable for the rest of your life, will you still go to work?

Do you go for career that potential take up most of your time which give you a lot money vs a career earning enough to be enjoying happy life ?

Is term life or whole life better? Should I buy term life and invest the rest? I heard term life is cheaper but need to keep paying, whereas whole life just pay for x number of years and get covered eternally?
