A question for those who have made “life changing money”.
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>There is a common saying that money cannot buy happiness, and I 100% agree with this.</p> <p>This is a very hard concept for somebody who has never had significant amounts of money to understand. </p> <p>Throughout my life, and I’m guilty of this as well, I have heard “rich people” as us poor people like to say, talk about how money doesn’t bring happiness. I called bullshit and most “poor” people would. </p> <p>“Of course money would make us happy. Things would be so much easier!”…..Right?</p> <p>I grew up poor, nobody in my family had money or owned anything of value. No cars, No houses, Nothing. </p> <p>Throughout the years I have done quite well for myself and have made significant amounts of money in comparison to what I’m use to. </p> <p>This money was not made through crypto just good old fashioned hard work and boring investments. </p> <p>If I’m I’m being 100% honest. I am not any happier than before. I have learned that less is more. </p> <p>Crypto has turned a lot of “normal” people into millionaires pretty quickly. </p> <p>So this is where my question comes in: </p> <p>For those who have made life changing money through crypto or not:</p> <p>How are you feeling, how has your situation changed for better or for worse?</p> <p>I’m not concerned with the amount you have made, but I’m genuinely curious how this “life changing money” has affected your life. </p> <p>Are you actually happier than before? Is your life really “easier” right now, or maybe things have become much worse since you made your life changing money? </p> <p>Im genuinely curious about your story. </p> <p>Since we are somewhere in between a bear and a bull market, and live in a society of fast money and consumerism, I think it’s important to provide honest perspective to people who are chasing this life changing money that magically makes all problems go away. </p> <p>Thank you to everyone who takes the time to respond!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/karlizak"> /u/karlizak </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/116hc17/a_question_for_those_who_have_made_life_changing/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/116hc17/a_question_for_those_who_have_made_life_changing/">[comments]</a></span>
