Without balance, trying to make yourself save a lot will lead you to poor productivity, which may mean losing your job and starting from scratch. Life is not rosy, but it is not completely cruel. If you have income, and according to your living situation and the economy of your country, make 70% of it for your personal expenses, whether it is housing, food, or Entertainment or anything else and try to invest at least 30% of your income. Make that investment in high-risk assets, low-risk assets and Bitcoin.
From what you've said, I can pick out that you're basically saying without proper knowledge and understanding of a required field, trying to make yourself a lot (of money) will lead you to poor or low productivity.
I understand your take well, everyone has expenses regardless of how low or high their income is and whatever part of the world they live in. It all left to us to spend wisely and likewise invest wisely, be it high-risk assets, low-risk assets or Bitcoin, we need to have basic understanding of all these before we invest in them.
I for instance I am into Bitcoin investment, I've met a couple of people who have the zeal to invest but don't know much about it. I try my best to help them understand more about it so they can invest without regrets, this awareness is very much needed as not many people have basic understanding of Bitcoin and how to invest in it.
