I max out my 401k and my IRA and have an efund but I always push myself to try to save more. I don't live a spartan lifestyle and some might even find it bordering on lavish, so how do I find that fine line that is balance - maximize my savings/investments while still enjoying life (meaning not constantly thinking about my finances)?
