This... Learning this myself. Personal topic for another time, but yes.

> If you were sacrificing your values (family, health, etc) hustling and bustling, that's what I would mean. People get married and then work so much they never see their spouse or kids. End up divorced or sick. Stuff like that. I don't want that. I'm okay with being a millionaire instead of a billionaire if it means I can be happy and healthy. That's what I mean. But this is about ME. My definitions and values aren't necessarily for YOU. Hustle culture in general isn't for ME.

I can't agree more.

We live in a culture with low average self esteem, heavily dependent on and encouraging external validation. Learning to rely less on the external world to provide your happiness is not easy, but I think is essential and possibly the only real way to break out of the rat race. That an financial literacy XD
