Comment on I'm not asking to be rich.

People who make 6 figures with thousands in the bank wondering why they are still miserable: “b-bhut I thought money and owning stuff was supposed to make me happy!” Financial security is but one aspect of finding personal happiness. There people who live in vans scraping by on meager SS who are happy as peaches with their new life. You can be happy and live a comfortable life with very little.

But that’s not what people here want to hear. You see what I say and instantly go “haha yet another corpo shill trying to tell me to be happy with owning nothing” well maybe there’s something to be found in ridding yourself of wants and desires. Learning to be happy with what you have while working towards a little more. Nah that can’t be!
