When I make a list of the things I'd like to do, but aren't, money is never the main barrier. It's things like... well... courage, faith, trust. I've actually had enough money at one point to retire (living on passive income), and it didn't make me happy at all. In fact, I stepped back from life a little, and it made me less happy. For me, in my present level of "spiritual wisdom" (for want of a better term), needing money seems to be a helpful motivation. I also observe what so many people do who make a lot of money do: keep on doing whatever it was they were doing.
