Just don't take away my vehicle to being financially independent sooner because other people have different priorities than me.

Yeah, I am a high saver here as well (probably around 30% of income goes to my TFSA/RRSPs/portfolio), which is great, but I definitely have a less luxurious style of life than a lot of my high-earning, high-spending friends.
