Have you ever wondered if your 30x revenue increase is what allowed you to pursue these passions, be able to find a good wife and raise your children?

I'm sorry if this comes out a bit strong but i really find this discourse kind of gross. "Yeah I have a ton of money but it doesn't matter to me. My real happiness is that I can go scuba diving in fun places 3 times a year. That's real success for me."

Like you I consider that my success in life is tied to my family more than my career, but I won't bury my head and pretend that one doesn't enable the other.

You need money to say money does not matter :)
Like oxygen, money is only important when you’re not getting enough of it.
