The Ebbs and Flows of Financial Abundance
Happiness Isn’t in the Bank
I am so glad that my financial abundance has come in ebbs and flows until now.
That might sound strange to say, but that’s exactly why I’m saying it.
The rich are not any mightier, happier, or superior to shit, and I’m here to show you why.
I know a lot of wealthy people.
I know a lot of highly educated people.
I know a lot of highly educated and wealthy people.
None of this shit guarantees happiness; in fact, it almost absolves the possibility of happiness, to be honest.
I am highly educated and wealthy, but I’m glad it has come at a cost.
I have always been willing to fling wealth back into the ocean if my happiness was jeopardized too much.
Education, thankfully, can never be stolen, lost, or disintegrated, so learn, learn, learn, I say!
What Have I Learned from the Wealthy and Educated?
Happiness is not part of the equation, and it’s actually much harder, if not completely impossible, to attain happiness if wealth has been handed to you.
