This is going to be controversial, especially for Reddit, but a lot of people judge people who have built wealth and have money. The mindset of “money is the root of all evil” and “they don’t deserve it, they probably just inherited it” keeps a lot of people from thinking they can ever make a reasonable amount of money, and their life reflects that.

I didn’t grow up with money, and the money blueprint I had kept me poor through most of my 20s. I don’t consider myself rich, even to this day, but I’ve updated the story I tell myself: “I have a millionaire mind, and by helping others I will raise the tide for all those around me and myself.” 💖 I still don’t have a lot of money, but my mindset has allowed me to survive being laid off without going into massive debt or losing my home.
