You can build things in life, or you can consume them. You can build a business, a family, a career in sports or arts, whatever it is that interests you and you work towards that goal.

This second article seems to reinforce that. Nothing wrong with this way of life, if it brings fulfilment to the author, more power to her, but I seek other kind of people.
