“He talked about money and wealth quite a bit, and after much though he arrived at the figure of $20 million dollars in net worth as “wealthy.” He defined wealth as never having to worry about money again.”
I dunno…. sounds like this guy worried about making it so much that when he finally did, he probably worried just as much about keeping it, or making more.
I’d rather make a comfortable amount and enjoy life more, than focus completely on financial gain and enjoy life less during the process.
A distant relation claims her lifetime goal is to make five million dollars, then she will feel accomplished.
Meanwhile, she’s a total bore at our family get-togethers because her conversation is all about money… making it, keeping it, and what others are spending. She repeatedly asks what things cost (like when my brother bought a new car) which makes me wonder if she thinks dollars are the only indicator of quality.
