Enough

Wealth is a feeling, a mindset, a lifestyle and has more to do with the way we live our lives than the money in our accounts.

Wealth, to me is about building meaningful relationships with the people you love. It’s about creating a life of freedom that when opportunities arise we can grab with both hands and take full advantage of them. It’s having options and choices that the old me would have never thought possible.

Let me tell you a little story from John Bogle’s book, Enough.

At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch-22 over it’s whole history. Heller responds, ”yes, but l have something he will never have… enough”

Simply, Beautiful.

Being content with what we have is one of the highest forms of wealth there is. Choosing not to have a lot of envy, resentment, and staying cheerful despite the inevitable setbacks we’ll face.

These simple rules work wonders on making our lives happier and wealthier.

Stay curious, life is an endless frontier.
