People spend money buying items they cannot afford to impress people they donāt likeā¦what a society. Give me jeans & t-shirts any day!

Exactly. Opting out of nonsense and buying into a brave new world is worth itā¦I donāt care if Iām never āreally rich.ā But I think that will be hard to avoid over the next 20 years for most of us.
I only regret being so stupid 13 years ago. I wasnāt maximally stupid, but far from smart, when it came to mining bitcoin with my laptop.
Depends what ābeing richā to you means? To me, I am already rich, rich in love, rich in life and rich in happiness. Materialistic items donāt mean anything to me. But that is just what it means to me, everyone is different. Thereās no stupidity either, every situation is a path meant to be traveled š«
Bingo. The journey is life. There is no destination.
But Iād literally be a billionaire if I had borrowed $10k from my wifeās folks in July 2010ā¦instead of throwing $20 at this thing called bitcoin & turning on my laptop. This was fairly risky for a resident with 2 kids and almost no free cashā¦turned out to be the best financial move of my life.
The shoulda woulda coulda is strong sometimesā¦though disappears instantaneously when I look at my bride and kidsā¦see them and donāt regret a damn thing. Things happen for a reason. PV š¤
