You have everything they ever wanted, and you're still complaining.

Let me paint you a picture of actual wealth: You're sitting in a temperature-controlled room, typing on a device that gives you access to all human knowledge, while music from any artist who ever lived plays in the background. You can order food from 47 different cuisines and have it delivered to your door. You can video chat with someone in Tokyo while ordering toilet paper from your phone.

Your 8-year-old self would think you’ve become a wizard-king.

Current you is scrolling LinkedIn, feeling like a failure because someone your age just bought their third rental property.

This isn't a gratitude post. This is an intervention.
