You're right in that I made the mistake by not responding to the original prompt of the thread, it was specifically directed at entrepreneurs, so I shouldn't have answered with a passive wealth building strategy. I totally took it off topic, like if a diabetic asked how to manage diabetes, I essentially answered that if you don't have diabetes, you don't have to worry about it. I more latched onto the time and succeed part, that's why I answered at all. But, I never said that entrepreneurship is only about money, or that it can be replaced, I simply shared a way to succeed in life, which I think is cool. There is something to be said for wealth equaling success, however. If happiness is success and wealth buys happiness, which it does[1], then wealth is success, in my book. Success is relative, for someone, they could be poor and unhappy, but have lots of kids and think that's what success means. I think it's about happiness in life. I think it's cool that people can succeed(gain happiness from not worrying about finance, among other benefits of wealth) even without taking on all that risk and burden of entrepreneurship. I definitely respect people building things. I was just sharing my personal path. [1] https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnjennings/2024/02/12/money-b... PS: It seems I started a trend of "entrepreneur" being capitalized, whoops :) |
