Here's something to chew on: if $100k sitting in your account doesn't make you happy, what makes you think $100M will?
Money amplifies who you already are. It doesn't fix what's broken inside. The guy miserable with six figures will just be miserable with eight figures and a fancier car.
Maybe the real alpha isn't in the next 100x—it's in figuring out what actually moves the needle for you.

That's pretty heartbreaking—the troubles of the wealthy are beyond our imagination.

Honestly, that really hit home for me. I always thought money could buy happiness, but now I realize I was overthinking it.

After hustling for so many years, looking back, that's really how it is.

Honestly, this sounds like a cliché but it really hits home—if you can't be happy with 100k, then 100M won't make a difference either.

100x returns… bullshit, figuring out what you really want is what actually matters.
---
Everyone in crypto talks about financial freedom, but in my opinion, a lot of people have achieved financial freedom while their minds are still imprisoned.
---
Wake up, everyone—100x won't save your mindset.
---
That's right, money is just a magnifying glass. It can magnify your happiness or your emptiness.
---
This is the greatest alpha, but sadly, many people never figure it out in their whole lives.
---
Those who can accept this perspective have already made it in investing.

Sounds easy, but actually doing it… insanely hard.

Haha, that's right, but the real challenge is finding that needle.

Incredible, these words really hit home... I've seen so many people in the crypto space who actually become more anxious after earning their first million.
