The highest forms of wealth are measured differently.
A few stick out:
1. Controlling your time and the ability to wake up and say, “I can do whatever I want today.”
2. When money becomes like oxygen: so abundant relative to your needs that you don’t have to think about it despite it being a critical part of your life.
3. A career that allows for intellectual honesty.
I am so glad I’ve already accomplished No.1. No.3 is irrelevant as I don’t have a career per se. Maybe in 5 years I can check No.2 off the list as well, which has as much to do with calibrating my needs as growing my net worth.
