You're not earning money for material possesions. That's a never ending unfulfilling pursuit. Your earning money to give yourself a secure future, to be able to spend more time with people you enjoy being around, to be free to go wherever you want, do anything you want at any time without money being an issue. You're earning money for freedom and independence. Do you have the hunger now? |

I have been doing that during my college years and few years after that but then the future came and it was secure regardless of money I had. Money got spent or lost on stupid investments. I feel bit insecure now but only a bit. Is scaring yourself about your unknown future the way to get the money hunger?
> to be able to spend more time with people you enjoy being around,
I spend 24 hours of at least 95% of my days with the woman I love. I think I can't improve that area by making more money.
> to be free to go wherever you want,
I'm exactly where I want to be. And I really don't like travelling.
> do anything you want at any time without money being an issue.
I'd like to have that, but to get more money I'd have to crawl out of my local optimum by doing the things I don't want to for a lot longer than I do now. Also success of 100% passive income would not be ensured.
> You're earning money for freedom and independence.
I don't feel like I'm lacking either of them now.
> Do you have the hunger now?
No, but thank you. Idea of making myself feel insecure about my future might be a way to go.
