So why you don't simply enjoy your life as it is ? If you will push hard towards your financial plans and dreams maybe you will find in 20 years you are just old man with a lot of money or you will be broken (e.g. next financial crisis, war, deadly illness etc...).

I think I would need to see a psychologist in order for that to happen. I'm very angry and sad at myself, I feel like I have contributed nothing to the world, and I never will.
You definitely should see a good therapist.

For one thing, having $1.5m is a great accomplishment. I think you are suffering from a first world problem and comparing yourself with successful entrepreneurs.

Give some of your money to a worthwhile cause and work there as a volunteer one day a week for a year. Then you will have made a worthwhile contribution.

Open your eyes and look at the problems that needs solving. Choose one and go for it!

I've tried speaking with some therapists with no luck. I wish someone could recommend someone to me. I don't care if they are in Hong Kong, I would leave tomorrow. Everyone always tells me I need therapy, but no one knows of a decent therapist. The ones I have spoken with have no clue, it makes me cringe to imagine dealing with that again. Plus, they only want to talk to you for an hour. So you are stuck with 1 hour per day to make changes, it's a nightmare.
