The ability to be spontaneous in life is directly proportion to the size of your bank account (lemmy.world)

I'd say it's more linked to how many dependents you have, rather than money in the bank.

Someone with no kids, no ~~wife~~ spouse (edit), and no pets can be spontaneous without a second thought.

Someone who's tied down, but wealthy, not so much.
