Is there any way to stop?

By stop, I mean stop saving, stop looking for deals, stop making money, stop the personal economic crusade?
I was penniless 25 years ago, I had to look after every single penny earned ..... after all that time I now find myself in a very fortunate position, financially.
At some point in time there was a cross over between me being hard up to me being more prosperous ...... at that time I could have loosened the purse strings, but didn't - or couldn't!
I still find myself standing in Poundland holding something for 15 minutes while I debate whether I should buy it ..... which, considering I could have many pounds drop from my pockets without me even noticing, is pathetic!
Am I doomed? Will I remain forever cautious, forever tight, forever scrimping?
Has anyone actually broken the cycle and stopped in enough time to spend and live life like money is no object - because, of course, at my time of life it isn't anymore.
Yet even more gloom from the old miser.
The rest of us are doing a lot better than you and having lots of money to spend and help the economy.
