Reading posts from all of you succcessful people in this thread reaffirms some my philosophy on the subject matter.There are many sides to wealth that I’ve observed:- Health- Community- Mobility- Climate- SpaceSome notes on my observations.A healthy body is form of wealth in time - A person with only 6 days to live wouldn’t be able to do much.Having a community is a store of relational wealth - We all need love and support and to feel needed by others.Mobility is a form of experiential wealth - If I am not stuck in a particular location, I’m free to pursue my passions and my tribe.Climate is a form of operational wealth - I’m more efficient and productive if the weather is optimal for me to carry out my daily tasks.Space as a form of wealth in 3D resources - A city dweller has to compete in resources much more than a ranch owner.
