Wealth and Money Are Two Different Things

Wealth and Money Are Two Different Things

I wanted to be rich so bad for my entire life.


In high school, I watched Wall Street with Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen. It was supposed to be a cautionary tale but I saw it as inspiration.


I wanted to be Gordon Gecko, the crazy high risk Wall Street trader. When I was 17, I got a job at a call center during the summer.


I was on the phone every day, working double shifts. I was selling mobile phone subscriptions to people, mostly elderly. It was a shameful job but I was making money. So I felt good.


This is how badly I wanted to get rich. But I was a teenage idiot.


Now, 20 years later, I finally understand that being rich and having a lot of money is not the same as being wealthy.


You can also be rich and not wealthy.


At some point, we all realize that life is just a collection of our memories.
