Hello!
I'm a young professional making good money and saving well. However, I find myself obsessing over finances. I check Mint multiple times a day (though once a week would be sufficient) and check repeatedly through each month to see if I have any extra money to move to my brokerage account (though once per pay period should be enough). I find myself making many minor financial adjustments (just switched my savings account to Ally and moved some of my too-large emergency fund to my brokerage account). I am also spending a lot of time reading finance and financial independence blogs, playing with retirement calculators, and browsing this subreddit.
All of this and I only just started my first post-grad school job about seven months ago. Even early retirement is at least 15-20 years away, but I can't stop myself from obsessively researching and monitoring.
Any advice on how to take a step back and just let my recently-established system work and grow?
And yes, I do see the irony in asking that question here.
