Do you know what you are earning for ?

What are you earning for ? Is it concrete or something vague that one day you will need this amount or something? Is it more than you or your family needs?

Or are you just a sheep like me ?

What are you earning for ?

To meet existing cost of living, have runway for 5+ years, medical emergency fund, house, car, and seed fund for my business.

Is it concrete or something vague that one day you will need this amount or something?

Targets are known and quantifiable. So, yes, concrete at the moment.

Is it more than you or your family needs?

Not really.

At the current pace, it will take numerous years before I meet my current targets.

Or are you just a sheep like me ?

You are not a sheep.

You are a hero, waking up each morning, doing something productive and adding their bit to the world.

Capitalism feeds in consumerism which in turn feeds capitalism ..this is a vicious circle..we work for corporates which essentially try to maximize profits..pay their masters and employees..who fuel consumerism ..the circle goes on..if all people work for needs, all corporates need to shut down and very few jobs will be in the market....earn, spend, earn more and spend more...goes on..

Currently, survival. But I have a goal that I hope to achieve someday. Not solely for myself, but more of a lasting legacy for society.

Upskilling to be a well-rounded individual. In the current rat race to be income generation machines, basic human values and decency have gone for a toss. So a structured immersion program to rediscover that. Sounds vague, I know, but I'm still in the crystallization phase!

Do you feel lesser need to hustle after making a decent amount of money?
