"The most valuable asset is the freedom that does not require pleasing anyone."
Many people think they want luxury cars and mansions, but in fact, what they truly desire is the respect, attention, and envy of others.
We like "good things" not necessarily because they truly make us happy, but because they allow us to be seen.
But when you no longer need to prove anything to others, no longer consume to please them, you can break free from the constraints of money and begin to truly have freedom.
The end of wealth is not higher numbers, but inner peace.
