The problem is that they don't understand that, no amount of money is enough. Even if you earn a lot of money, you want to earn more. And thus you will never get enough time to fulfill your desires. And that's why fulfilling your desires along with saving money is the best thing to do.

If I take myself, I also want to retire early but I am not saving 70% or 80% of my salary because I can't. I am saving around 25% to 30% only and I know it's not enought, but along with that I know that I need to travel too because who knows I will be there or not till my retirement. Similarly I will be able to travel that much because of my health so it's better to experience both save for the future and along with that experience the present by fulfilling your desires.

Desires can be anythinh, you want to travel the world, you want to start your passion, you want to learn something new. Whetever it is you have to start small, means you can do with your fukl time job and thus keep your desires alive. And when you are totally financial free, you can change from your part time desires to the full time desires.

I save some money and want it to grow fast but along with that I gain quite a good experience by travelling. I am not travelling luxuriously but I am a budget traveller in that way I am saving money as well as enjoying my money in the present.
