Do you like wealth, or the security and stability that wealth brings? Because I love the latter, but dislike the former. I hate seeing large numbers sitting in an account doing nothing but growing larger, and telling myself this is the “smart” thing to do to create security for myself and my loved ones. I should be able to acquire and maintain the latter without sitting on a growing pile of tickets masquerading as “wealth”.
- card_zero 2y agoBy wealth I mean nice things, which may be more or less material according to taste. Numbers sitting in an account is not wealth, because wealth is stuff you palpably enjoy, or that otherwise does you some good. If you transform the numbers into something that you imagined, and make it real, now you've got wealth (and, even if indirectly, the wealth has a good chance of making you money through some kind of thriving).
