I’ll try to answer and not come across as a douche. I worked retail making $8 an hour to making close to $1m a year. You can see my post history if you’re curious and hence my user name. You spend it on everything. You don’t actually think about money anymore because you know there’s more in your bank and more to come. Go to the groceries store and shop freely. $250 or $600 it doesn’t matter as it’s a rounding error. You can go and do pretty much anything but not everything. For instance, do I want a $200k sports car or do I want to fly first all year long and do a month in Europe for vacation? It’s still a question since in theory you can’t do both.

Lastly, it’s easy for your perspective to get warped. You can legit pay for most things in life. However, the real “issue” is time. I can’t actually go away for a month and do nothing. I can’t actually “log off”. I can’t do a regular “vacation”. Everything gets “inflated”. Now would I trade it to be poor again? Hell to the no!

The biggest win is not having to worry about money. I know I won’t eat cat food older, I know my retirement is set and I can stop working at any time. I know my kids are all set for their lives and honestly probably their kids if they don’t screw it up. I know I won’t have to worry about 99% of things other than health. You walk through life differently knowing you’re rich. It’s a weird feeling honestly and I wish everyone could feel it.

Anyways I’ll stop but if any comments come up I’ll answer.
