People say this kind of thing a lot. Find the balance between making sure you have what you need and making sure you are not trying to have more than you will ever need.

I find it’s people who have more than enough that say that generally.

I think the takeaway is don’t look for your value in the way others see you. You will never be good enough.

“If you worship money and things, if they are where you tap real meaning in life, then you will never have enough, never feel you have enough. It’s the truth. Worship your body and beauty and sexual allure and you will always feel ugly. And when time and age start showing, you will die a million deaths before they finally grieve you.”
