Well I do have rich friends but most of them are dealing with illegal biz and I don't want to be a part of that. I don't want to say that I'm rich but I'm a lot more well off than a lot of people I've met. I'm grateful for that every single day. I'm grateful that I can spend more time with my mom who was diagnosed with cancer than chasing something materialistic.
Yes u can continue be grateful.
But here are people father pass away while young, single mother brought up six kid. Everday worry about food, need to borrow money from relative and frend, sometime eat from leftover from dunno how many day before. Everyday live in fear, with no shelter as no money to pay rent.
Can u look at this positively, people work hard because they dun want to go back to kind of life, WTF wrong with u guys keep telling people dun aim for money and money is not everything, have u ever go through days without food, have u seen your younger sibling go hungry and your old mother sacrfice for u just to place food on the table.
have u have lie and steal to feed your family ?
different people different motivation, is not always about u, have u ever reach suicidal stage on your life, why why i have this kind of life, to end your life is easy, but about your young sibling and your mother
sometime people want to work hard and repay their parent kindness. And that why people want to be above average and to get rich.
