Happiness is not the goal. I want stability. I want a full belly, and a roof over my head. Money is the only way to get that in this fucked up world. If happiness is a by-product, cool.
once you have those things… you’ll want more and your definition of stability will adjust.
it’s just how we are hardwired, there isn’t much getting around that, short of relgious/spiritual beliefs that restructure your brain to reward ascetisim.
Honestly the only thing is probably change about my current situation would be to get out of renting. I’ve been in this place for ten years, but it still doesn’t feel as stable as I’d like.
