Well, you know I would rather be happy than rich or wealthy? Or money is not that important. Or that it's okay, like if we set our goals too high then we will get disappointed. I don't know about other rich people. But I have been rich and I have been poor and I can tell you rich is a lot better. Better to film my video in a luxury SUV than on a bicycle. Boss on the bicycle would not look so good. So what I'm talking about is, it has nothing to do with that if you are a happy person, money will make you happier. It would give you more tools and more currency to do things to make an impact. If you are a sad, depressed miserable person, more money will make you depressed, sad and more miserable. It has nothing to do with each other. People like to use that as an excuse to justify their failures. To justify their lack of ambition. And they say well, you know what it's, I just want to be okay, I don't need a lot of money. I don't need to be wealthy. And I just want to be happy. What I say is, why not both? Why can't you have both? Why can't you be happy and wealthy at the same time. Why can't you be happy, wealthy and healthy at the same time? Why do we have to choose? Why can you not have it all? It's like the saying, well, you can't have the cake and eat it too. Then my question is what is the damn point of having that cake? You want to have the cake and you want eat it too. That's what it is. So we have a lot of these misconceptions and lies and myths that people believe in that are not true and very often they are simple excuses to justify. That's all that it is. They are justifications. And I could tell you that most people who are successful financially, most, not all most are pretty happy. Most are pretty happy because they don't have to worry a lot of things that most people worried about. You don't have to worry about the bills. You don't have to worry abour your car payment. You don't have to worry about your house payment. So a lot of the struggles and the hassles that a lot of people have, a lot of the simple things that people are worried about. When you are successful, when you have more financial means you don't have to worry about those things. You could focus on other things that are maybe more important. You could spend more time with your family. You could help the people that they need help with. So don't buy into the whole bullshit of oh, are people happy or rather be, no, do both? Be wealthy, as well as, be happy, right? Don't buy into all that. By the way if this the first time you're watching my video sure you click the link and hit the subscribe button.
