Are we working just for the sake of money? What’s the real reason we are awakened every morning by an alarm clock? Why do we give the best years of our lives to trading labor for currency?
Are there other ways to live? Yes. Start by reducing your debt load and work hours. You’ll find you don’t need nearly as much to live comfortably than you previously thought.
Become less and less dependent on your paycheck over time. It can be done. The money you spend, make sure part of it is going into things you are passionate about.
Don’t be “Blinded by The Benjamins” or doing things you don’t want to do just to make money. We can’t take it with us. And have you ever seen an armored truck at a funeral? I haven’t.
Questions:
Are we blinded by money?
Why do we work?
Why do we pay what we pay for things?
