i'm just always reaching for the unattainable.
what i wanted when my networth was $20k doesn't interest me the slightest bit now, even though i never acquired it.
i think it's my fate and i'm coming to terms with accepting that my life is about sorrow at this point
don't always mind but it gets really tiring if i don't get a single non-depressed day for several weeks

Half a mil at 31, happy as fuck.

Qt pregnant wife, 3 year old bubbly blonde baby girl, live a quarter mile from my parents and a quarter mile from work. I have sit-down meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner just about every day with my wife and child.

Taking up woodworking, getting deep into smoking meats, restoring a 125 year old piano, all while chipping away at the never-ending list of home improvement projects.

I am obscenely happy, which scares the fuck out of me. It feels like I'm literally living Annabel Lee

Have you tried for example going on a vacation (a quiet house in the Alps for a month for example) and just appreciating what you have?
It seems you can afford it
Do you have non-money related goals?

Happy for you man. I would love to have that someday. What did your life look like at 27?

Go online and find out how to buy a DMT ride in Peru.

It seems like you've got something a little broken in your brain. It's worth a shot, and it'll be pennies to you.

I want to do it myself because I'm all about self-discovery, but even I'm terrified at the prospect of a prolonged DMT experience. That shit will change you, man

That's because you dont need to deal with voices/look/inflections, or even personality ticks or "uh" or "um" shit, only whatever they intentionally post, read in a mental voice suited to the content.

You're doing great, man. $56k liquid at 27 is so far above the average it's silly. Just don't be frivolous, invest only in fundamentals for the long term, and focus on the things that matter, which money is but one of.

At 27, i had owned my first house for a couple years. Sold for about 50% profit a couple years later and sank it into equity in the next house near my parents and work. I got married to my college sweetheart at 28, first born at 29, now I'm paying down a 30yr $150k loan on a $350k house with $100k in Roths, $30k or so liquid, and about $100k in fake internet money.

Yeah, meteoric wealth accumulation does that.
