... as a "breadwinner", my wife is not working, and two kids. Do you really think that "making money" is the only life goal left?
I'm reading my social media, many do not believe recession is approaching, many listen to the news on inflation is transistory, and yup, It is all written on the social media, they are the living proof to what we failed to realize in the year past, remember social media do not existed before 2010,
this is the first time we can read the life of any peasant at the comfort of our sweet home with just a click of button!!! you know what I feel after reading their avatar? All about money and families, they would blame about life, unfair wage, kids, wife, that pretty much sum up everything they can say on their life, when I try to talk about passion in life, they have nothing to say, but they begin to ignore me after a while, make me feel bad bringing hhe topic up.
Money rules the world because money buys things...
...money sacrifice some other (even more) important things in life. It's all about some balance, and I know how hard can be to find one.
That is fine when you begin to believe money could buy things, particularly necessicity in life, too bad, you are going to regret saying about it, when you look at the market today, what can you buy with money again? With every store now running low on supply of everything, you can have money and price but there is no goods to buy from. Then your money can buy thing is invalid. Read about history how cultural revolution has always make your paper money worthless over night, the central banker can conveniently declare your bank note are not legal tender and there is nothing you can do about it but suffer all loss. Finding balance? That is impossible in life especially when your life is string attached.
