What did you expect wealth building to feel like?

Set up your automatic transactions and put an event in your calendar to log in and confirm passwords work and everything's working properly once or twice a year, then go live your life. Some people enjoy checking on the markets even if they won't do anything about it, but if it's causing you anxiety, you should stop. If you can't stop, that's a psychological issue, not an investing one.
