I was just sitting in front of the TV with family. It occurs to me the reason why rich people are envied is because ads like the who wants to be a millionaire ones that make it look like being a millionaire means champagne on a private cruise forever after.

Of course, if we all intuitively (and emotionally) think life is luxury and fun all day long for a millionaire, then we envy them. But millionaires that are hard workers that have salaries and bills to pay and their hard work that lead to their sustainable millions (sustainable being the key word) is not to be envied but to be inspired by.

We are taught to mould a box called a career and contort ourselves to fit inside it. We should be taught to explore ourselves our relationships and pursue challenges with others to capture unique opportunities. It's technically harder, but we are robbed of our potential when we follow the narrative.
