I know I talk about this more times than you probably want to hear. But here goes again...
...money boosts your comfort level but doesn't boost your happiness.
There are SO many empty unfulfilled rich people in this world whose sole purpose to be richer. A lot of them just want to tell their bosses to go fuck themselves. Others want freedom to do what they want and not answer to people (spouses or friends). Others want it for envy. So they buy very shiny things. Make others jealous. Get great looking spouses.
And yet, they are still empty inside.
Success is and will never be measure by how much money you have. The quality of life DEFINITELY will. For most of us, we want to be comfortable. Eat a hot meal and sleep soundly. Because, again...this all will end one day. And that money in your wallet will mean nothing. Because dead people can't spend money. So it moves on.
I never understand people who simply want to be richer than they already are. Nancy Pelosi is painfully rich. A scumbag human being. A casual look at her tells you the miserable life she's led. Always on that pedestal of society that granted her position and power but still feels she is the step child. She recently inside traded when Biden announced electric vehicles would take over all federal vehicles. Which means her newly bought stock in Tesla, days before it was even announced, spiked. Call it what you want, there is no reason for her to want to chase more money. Unless it's a dick measuring contest to see how much she can steal from Americans. She wins handedly.
Regardless, none of this makes her happy. She will die miserable. As will Biden. As will Trump. Because these types of ambitious people...enough is never enough.
So, if you are looking money throughout your life, I hope you find comfort in it. You can't buy your friends with money. Because those you buy with money won't be honest with you.
Therein lies politics.
