I hate spending money and that attitude has turned me into a hermit.
I'm with you on that. The combination of inflation and working from home for the last few years have made me borderline agoraphobic at this point. I think I've had in-person interactions with fewer than 15 people in the last year. It's just too expensive to do anything these days.
It's probably not great for our mental health.
I also work from home, sometimes 4 or 5 days can pass before I realize I haven't been outside in that amount of time.
