I can relate. When I was younger I always wanted money so I could go on a fun trip buying whatever I wanted at Ikea. But now that I have the money, I am even more of a tightwad. I don't want to spend money. I also worry a lot about my money being drained by theft or simply by greedy companies that I have it in. There seems to be endless ways to steal from people these days.
Speaking of... I would not recommend a financial advisor. IMHO just look up the press releases on the DOJ site, 99% of white collar crime are financial advisors stealing money. You can do it just as well.
I think I would put it back into real estate - an income producing property. You gain on both ends of that and it is hard to steal.
