Once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re rich, then what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It seems that a lot of people only want to become rich, as a means to financial independence<\/a>, which means not having to work for a living. Also, the desire for location independence<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But the funny thing is that now that Covid has hit, location independence becomes overrated. Why? We can no longer travel<\/a> with unlimited borders. Therefore, in terms of location, we tend to just stay in one spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And I think a lot of people desire financial independence as a means to more entertainment. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know about you, but I think that a lot of people aspire to become more artistic and creative after financial independence, but in reality, after financial independence they become lazy, unmotivated, lost, and more passive<\/a>. They spend more time playing video games, watching Netflix, and other forms of entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I cannot speak for you, but if I speak for myself, I see life after riches as a means to greater focus<\/a> and productivity for my passion<\/a>, which is blogging<\/a>, photography<\/a>, entrepreneurship<\/a>, philosophy<\/a>, design<\/a>, and art<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re rich, then what?
