Yes, I know of someone who won the lottery and invested unwisely and although they are living comfortably in a nice house, they are back in a regular job.

I think one of the reasons lottery winners go broke has to do with goals. A lot of people’s main goal is subsistence. They want to get by.

Take that away, and their main goal in life is gone. We are like sharks. If they don’t keep swimming, they die. Well, goals are to humans what swimming is to sharks.

Cheers on the post Glen.

I like your concept of separating yourself. You don’t have to be rude or anything but some “friendships” just need to die on the vine in order for you to stay focused!

I’m talking to Mars Dorian about focus?

Thanks for the great perspective.

I’m still alive and in one piece, so I got that going for me. I do have a fair bit of medical drama in my life but this seems to be typical in my life as this week I had a couple medical appointments to take out some blood and take pictures of my feet. Next week doctor appointments that will follow up on that which should be good.

I’ll second that money shouldn’t be the primary goal and this is why I have work and interests in my life. Other people may want to be workaholics and believe that it is all about having the most money at the end, but I believe there is more to life than that.
