For me, if the answer to #1 is in favor of saving for runway, that disposes of the question. Just need to be careful, as you are aware, of motivated reasoning.
For #2, for me, the good demands all of your money. Of course, you are not going to be the most effective agent if you keep yourself in poverty, so this probably doesn’t imply total penury. But insofar as other conscious beings today are capable of positive and negative experiences like you are, it isn’t clear why you should privilege your own over those of other conscious beings.
