That's not money's problem. That's a you problem.

But "you" is wrapped up in power and power tends to be economic.

To cry and say "oh but life would be so meaningless" is a crazy cope. There is no downside to infinite material security and unlimited potential that can't be managed.

HARD disagree. It's like playing a game where you have unlimited everything. You don't have to work for it, you don't have to be innovative, smart or save; you just can. it's fun at first but eventually and quickly you do everything you wanted and get bored. If you have to take your time, build up, work hard at it and push yourself through failure that success is profound. It's why souls like games are so goddamn popular.

You're mixing up material security with meaningfulness. Sure, having no financial worries is great, but struggle is what MAKES us who we are. Tough decisions where we have no choice but to face the outcome. If a mega rich person dumps tens of millions into candidate A and they lose, it's no big deal. The clear lack of consequences and lack of actual failure is what makes the ultra rich miserable. even failure is success for them so they're not even people they're just bodies with NASDAQ pacemakers.
