“I felt the poorest when I was actually the wealthiest, purely because I didn’t see new money coming in.”

This is so true and underrated. I have a lot of cash right now, but feel less financially secure than when I had regular income.

I wonder if this is part of why people continue working instead of “retire”. I wonder how this changes male vs female.

Makes sense evolutionarily since as a hunter gatherer it was impossible to store multiple years worth of wealth. We didn’t evolve to feel secure with a high number on a screen

Remembering how short life can be is a big one. The years seem to be flying by and it will just keep getting faster it seems!

Don’t get good at the wrong thing is such an understatement. The highest energy years of my life passed while I was busy trying to get good at a game I never wanted to win.

Can’t wait for the book.
