What’s the Point of Being Rich: Exploring Wealth Beyond Money

Money can make the world go round, but is that all there is to life? People often believe that obtaining riches and hoarding them in vaults or offshore accounts will give them ultimate happiness, as money solves everything, right? Wrong. There are so many facets of wealth beyond monetary worth.

The Power Of Possessions:

Wealth goes further than just money; it includes every personal possession one has- from cars to jewelry. Although it may seem like having expensive assets makes you rich, wealth should be more about surrounding yourself with things you value most rather than what others think values your worth.

Expensive Cars Vs Vanilla Scooters

People have various preferences when it comes to purchasing different types of vehicles – a fancy sports car versus a plain van or even an old-school motorbike over electric scooters. Do possessions equate to financial wellbeing?

The truth is vanity isn’t necessarily synonymous with affluence so don’t let anyone fool ya! >:)
Going for trending luxury looks good on paper but we must always ask ourselves one question before splurging:‘Will this object bring me long term pleasure?’

New Phone Who Dis?

Who hasn’t been scrolling online lately and thought:“How can I afford this new gadget??”
It’s no secrete my fellow reader folks, everybody wants the latest shiny objects because it’s trendy and people our age crave such attention.insert rolling-eye emoji

Status Quo

There’s no doubt in saying expensive phones do make some sorta statement when flaunted around town. But guess what…
In 2019 Forbes published their famous annual list ‘World’s Most Powerful Women’ which included Oprah Winfrey whose phone was found out to be…drum rolls please A Samsung Galaxy S10 costing only $550 compared to the average cost of flagship brands which hover around roughly $1000-$1500. Oprah’s point wasn’t to show the world that she couldn’t afford a fancier phone or that wealth isn’t essential but rather they’re just bigger things at heart.

Free Time

So, what do wealthy people do with all their leisure time? Spin class maybe? Shudders Nope!
Studies have shown that individuals who work fewer hours and make more money tend to volunteer in their communities.
Simple little activities like feeding ducks, visiting animal shelters or local food banks can not only develop hobbies for you but also give back to society which itself is worth more than any stack of gold coins.

Friendship, Family And Faith:

No amount of net worth will ever be enough if one does not have friends, family or faith. These valuable assets grow naturally over the years as opposed to ‘financing’-’em-in-quick.

Priceless Bonds

Loved ones although intangible are immeasurably priceless (double star this) Wealthy individuals often find themselves regarding relationships far above finance compelling them towards building-up strong reliable bonds with-family-and-friends over flashy possessions

Levels Of Happiness

In growing research on your beloved happiness (something we all want in life), it has been revealed personal connections contribute significantly when compared against income levels alone.
This trend was highlighted further by Nick Powdthavee author of ‘The Happiness Equation’ who analyzed data from 300,000 American households and found happiness positively correlates with increased interaction between family members.Thes interactions may include -family-meals-siblings-playing-together-birthday-celebrations-religious-ceremonies etc….

### Wine Tastings vs Bedtime Stories

Quality time spent together uplifts one’s soul unlike material acquisitions especially when considering raising children up-close-n-personal beats quickie rush-to-bedtime stories. Stats from Child Trends state children growing up with positive familial relationships are more likely to succeed academically and stand out as individuals when compared to their counterparts who’ve had little connection with parents or siblings at home

Faith

Connecting spiritually may benefit one’s overall well-being, reducing anxiety by elevating mood and even life expectancy is expected-to be-amplified as numerous studies suggest spiritual healing has long term trickling effects on health-care related costs for an individual

Spirit Of Adventure

Funnily “rich” people don’t always have the most money- they often just live better lives than those who hoard every penny. The good news…yours-could-be-too!

Living Life To The Fullest

Wealth goes beyond why we think in acquiring experiences rather than fiscal accord Hence anyone living a wonderful fulfilled life, regardless of society’s collective opinion of such-success will atleast appreciate its basic essentials

Daredevil Debacles

Adventuring can take many forms:it could mean skydiving-snakes-catching-bungee-jumping-for-the-first-time-starting-a-business-and-taking-risks jumping off high cliffs into water – there aren’t any rules you just gotta keep pushing the envelope making sure what you do brings pleasure & enriches your daily-life.

Memories Over Money

Chasing memories should hold greater value over mere paper currency but how does this work? Simple!
For example:
Instead of placing expensive things atop our dream list next time plan something small yet memorable like travelling to South Africa- camping somewhere remote amongst mother nature having a flamin hot braai under the African sky marvelling at surrounding wildlife all while bonding with family-friends-even complete strangers you meet-on-the way! This gives us possibilities unlimited one-of-a-kind experiences possessing much higher-end intrinsic-value rather shopping until-I-drop scenes gasp-rueful….and let’s face it not to mention soulless.

Summing Up Wealth Above Monetary Value

To sum it up Life IS a gift and spending every moment in admiration of material possessions is simply not worth our time. Every human regarded as rich is fortunate enough for having crossed paths with genuinely caring people, gaining experiences-memories-lifelong friends-family connections-over-material-trinkets giving individuals true feeling of success✔️👌
