As a man. Only once you get rich will you realize how pointless it is. The only REAL use for excessive money is providing an epic life for your family. As a man. You don't need much $$ to be happy. The threshold is so low. You need purpose and freedom. To do this, you need: A reasonable apartment in a safe area A computer Something that can make money that you would do for free for the rest of your life This can be achieved at $10k a month. Don't get me wrong. $10k a month isn't chump change. But it isn't the 7 figures people think you need to make it. You don't need to make 10s of millions of dollars. You just need to get good enough at something you love to make slightly above the median household income in the US from your bedroom. You. Yes, you reading this. If you're thinking the world's over and you can't make it. You need to relax. A big house. Cars. Nice things. They just simply won't make you happy. If anything, the bills for these things will STOP you from being happy as they will restrict your freedom. What WILL make you happy is waking up and working on something that matters to you. If you can then work in: Having easy access to a gym Picking up a creative hobby (instrument/writing/art) Staying off social media Picking up a combat sport I'm sorry. If you have all that. You've won at that point. No. I'm not saying making $10k a month from your bedroom is "easy." But any man... high IQ. Low IQ. Etc. Is capable of pulling that off if they put their nose to the grindstone for a year or two. But the mountain men think they have to climb to make it based on social media has hit retardation levels of stupid. According to some sources, I'm worth close to multiple 9 figures. Guess what. I still do the same shit and get off on the same shit I did when I was worth nothing. I wake up. Go to my computer. Work on stuff I like. I lift weights. Play guitar (badly). Write. Read. Then go to bed. I spent decades getting "rich" just to figure out I never needed to. Don't get me wrong. More money is better than less money. Making lots of money is also fun. BUT Absolutely nothing that makes me happy requires a high income. Absolutely nothing that will make you happy requires a high income either. Everything you need in life is completely within your reach to achieve. Just relax, keep your chin up and go get it.
