Honestly, what's the point? If you aren't truly financially free life will always be a subpar version. You will always live doing what you can, never what you really want. It's like playing a game you can't never reach new levels. You will be hitting a plateau until you die.

You won't travel the places you want, fuck the women of your dreams, have a nice house, provide for your family, have the best healthcare and all the things that give you peace of mind. What's even the point then?

I get impressed that people aren't desperately trying to get rich. I don't understand how you can be born broke and accept that fate without even fighting. For me getting rich is the only way to actually live. There's no other option. It's either that or live a washed out version of my life - and I don't want that.

How can you sleep at night knowing you are mediocre? How can you wake up knowing it's just another day that you will have to work - when you don't really want to?

How can you die peacefully knowing you didn't give your best to live your dreams and your wildest fantasies?

Yes you do. If you don't have enough money you will wage slave forever and have no time to spend with your loved ones.

Working 40 hours a week is easy, you still have all night and the weekends to spend time with friends and family

You can tell you are healthy by how you feel, and cancer is mostly caused by bad diet and poor lifestyle choices

You just got that wage slave brainwashed mentality. Life is so precious. Why would you spend 5 or 6 days of the week wasting it on some bullshit job you don't even really care about? I rather spend time with my family and have time for my hobbies.

Not if you have a good job, and obviously being rich is ideal, I’m just saying you can still have a good life without being rich

How is a life where you are living below your potential good? You are literally missing out your whole live due to monetary reasons. It's miserable. It's like fucking with a condom your whole life.

It's funny you mention that because when you look at wealthy people, they are often enslaved by the constant need to maintain their wealth and profits. Their minds become obsessed with earning more and more, being ever more productive, to the point where they lose the freedom to enjoy what is truly natural—love, family, virtue, and personal growth.

It's true that in this world we do need money, but not in excess. One can work without becoming a slave to a salary. For this to happen, we must cultivate an attitude of indifference toward external things and focus on what we can control: our thoughts, desires, and actions.

Allow me to quote Epictetus from his Diatribes:

‘I have no need of gold, nor of precious objects. When I see something beautiful, I say to myself, “It is beautiful, but I cannot afford it.” In other words, I can admire things without desiring them. When I see gold objects, jewelry, or similar items, I think: “How beautiful! But I don’t need it. I don’t want it.”’

Yes, very unfortunate. Life is a wild ride sometimes.
 
Its cause people are retarded. they try something once and then give up and then delude themself saying that you just have to get lucky, or that success doesn't mean happiness.

JFL. This is cope. Not all rich people live like that. I wouldn't even say most of them live like that. Do you think the average rich person has a more stressful life than an average brokie? I disagree. If you are constantly worrying about your wealth is because you don't have reliable income sources and made bad financial decisions.
It's true that in this world we do need money, but not in excess.
If you don't have it in excess you will always be a slave to work and money.
“How beautiful! But I don’t need it. I don’t want it.”’
It's cute, but honestly most people don't even want luxury, just want peace. Just not having to work. In this world you can't have true peace without a lot of money. You won't be able to sleep as peacefully as someone who doesn't have to work the rest of their lives and know they are safe until they die.

Facts. Most people see how hard it's to get rich from ground zero and they aren't willing to fight for it. So they create all kinds of mental cope to justify why being broke is nice and acceptable. They brainwash themselves to believe being rich sucks. Crazy.

The difference is intention. For example a secluded monk has no intention of becoming rich or fucking women. Because of this he is satisfied and "successful" because he has all the things he wants. But if you are already living in regular society, making money etc, then not wanting to have more is stupid.
