I mean, if you have a lot of capital, the amount of existential press diminishes, right? So you are fully entitled to sit in a meadow and meditate though the rest of your life. What else would you want to do?

I would open a spiritual newage healing clinic if I wanted to do something more.

You can do that with no money. The issue is how long you want to live before food runs out or how set you need to be. Was listening to two people on disability talking recently and they get by on $920 a month. So you could meditate all day and still eat and have a roof over your head.

Nope. With no money, I will be worried sick about the future.

Exactly. Having no money can be REALLY stressing. Having to fear what will happen in the future can bring up some serious existencial fears.

Having enough money might bring up other fears. Like how to keep that money. But generally a sane person can live better with money.

The problem here is nobody is satisfied with what they have. We all want more and more. In the end we are never happy. If you want to be happy...learn to be satisfied with what you have.

You never "have enough" of money. You are always greedy for more. For example see the wealthiest people- do they seem like they're not trying to earn more money?

People aren't always greedy for more. Wealthy people just put there money some where that makes more money, cause they have to do something with it. You can put only so much money in the bank before you have to start putting it into something the preferable makes money. Doesn't make that person greedy. I found at $20k/monthly I was making more money then I needed. Anything that I had made over $20k, I put into stocks or some other investment. A lot of times, I just gave away some of the extra money to friends that needed help with rent or a car payment/repair. I have a friend that makes $3million/monthly. He buys properties and other investments. Not because he wants more money, but because he needs to put that extra money some where.

I think its boring because every people mind set is "money is never enough"

But on the otherside it depends on the situation. If you're single I think you'll feel bored. But if you're merried you'll have a spirit to "earn a lot of money" because of your child/wife Grin

As others have said, it's more about doing something you love while earning that wealth. Otherwise it's like climbing a ladder thinking things are super-exciting once you get to the top, but you never get to the top to get that feeling, long before that, you fall off the ladder and die without ever having allowed yourself that peak experience of contentment.

I say try to pick the most interesting ladder that you can, that way you can just keep doing what you're doing as you go along. Then it's not about the wealth, more the quality of life experience.

Well it depends on the situation or on the person
Actually i onced asked a rich guy (my classmate in college) before if is it fun being wealthy.
He said at first it is but as he grew older, he's getting tired of it and he wanted to try something born rich people didn't experienced (being poor ) so he hang out with me (yes, i'm a poor guy) and showed him our(poor people) world. He said it was hard but it was fun and he really admire me on how i can survive on that situation

Lol. Man. That's a touch insulting. Having been born poor myself, I think I would have taken him to the worst areas I know and left him there at 3am in the morning and told him to enjoy himself. When your poverty is another persons 'rich' experience, you should start charging for the ride.

Put an ad somewhere:

'Rich and bored? Come experience the shit life with me! I'll take you lower than you've ever been before, and show you things that'll turn your nose up like you wouldn't believe. Just 4 BTC a day. McDonalds meals not included. Bring your own pack lunch, but not salmon sandwiches, or we'll end up getting the crap kicked out of us both due to your culinary faux-pas while were traversing the post-apocalyptic wasteland called 'The Projects.'

Getting pick-pocketed and headbutted is part of the silver package. If you wish to upgrade from the bronze package, then I'm sure we can accommodate you. Our gold package will leave you drunk and toothless and sleeping rough for a couple of nights, with the added bonus that we'll let you think you've really lost everything, giving you the full authentic experience.

Understandably, the gold package costs more at 20BTC. No refunds... because no one gives you a refund for being born into a crap life on the streets. Wink

Having wealth is one thing less to worry about. I don't see how wealth could be boring, especially if you don't have a job to worry about or spend time. I mean you could travel

If I had lots of money, with a steady flow to ensure that my basic needs are taken care of, then I will start thinking of what I really want to do.

depends on what you do and what you enjoy, but having money opens doors, the more money you have the more opportunity you have for interesting experiences.

The most important thing is that you do something that you love to do.

That won't be understood by most people here. Everyone here has a greed based mindset. A self-actualization mindset is lost on them.

I wouldn't say everyone. How about a 40 year old African in the middle of nowhere, Martin Luther, or hundreds of others one should come up with? Sure, they may have had a handful of greedy thoughts in their life but they didn't act on it.

Ok, 90% of the people here.

Money only solves your money problems. It doesn't solve your life problems. When you have enough money for your life, new kind of problems starts to poppin around you. I ain't seen a millionaire living without problems.

this is what poor people say to satisfy themselves and don't get depressed about their full of problems lives.

it is true that money does not solve all your problems and millionaires have many problems but without money you will have 100X of those problems :/

That is a somewhat absurd statement, poor people do not always have problems.

You can be poor, but be wise with money and have little problems in life.

The key if you are low income is avoiding debt. Obviously expensive hobbies like sports cars, worldwide travel, etc will be out of the question, but its more a question of personal habits and your general outlook.

I know poor people who have no "problems" due to their income alone.

I think your statement is somewhat absurd. It is impossible a person can live without a problem. There has to be a problem otherwise there is no meaning of life. Problems make our life beatiful and only stupid and measurable people live in debt.

If you get bored because of it then you probably didn't do much to get that wealth. If you earned it then you won't sit around. You would have so many ideas you could put in motion that you don't even get the idea of life being boring.

Nah, i prefer being rich with a stable income each month.

Well i dont know why people get bored by wealth, why should be in depress by wealth.
You should be happy with that

Large amounts of money make people lose that generous, kind, caring part of their personality. The people who give the most are those who have the least. People who do not have much ate much more real.

Yes a poorer guy would be more helpful then that of the richer guy. The poor person understands the emotions of others as he has gone through the same phase.

Comparatively rich people don't have respect for the poor and they don't treat them as they should be treated. It is better to be poor and helpful rather to be a rich and useless Wink

That is the norms of this society nowadays. Sadly, as a man grow richer and richer, the gap between himself and the poor is widening. I've always wondered why people who have less tends to give more, and the people who have more tends to give less, when theoretically, the people who have more should give more simply because they have the resources to give.
