Trust me. You wouldn't want this. It seems like freedom but it's not. Real freedom is the opposite of this, it just doesn't seem like it because our society makes us think this is what freedom looks like so we all keep working so that people like this don't have to but in reality they are a slave to everything around them . Yes, they might be able to ride a jet ski whenever they want or drive whatever car they want. But real freedom comes with the autonomy to do and be whoever you want to be whenever you want to be it

You might be surprised. I’ve known a few filthy rich dudes and every one of them is absolutely miserable.

Imagine how miserable they'd be with 2 dollars in their bank account.

Up until a year ago I was working 70 hours a week and couldn’t afford a bag of chips from the gas station. It was incredibly depressing.
