You’re right you need the discipline to not blow all your funds on stupid shit, and to care for yourself. Other then that if you’re rich it’s just for vanity purposes

Well you must have not read my message. I’m saying you need discipline no matter what to succeed, but you may just need less depending on circumstances

Discipline isn’t to keep yourself occupied. Discipline is necessary to achieve any long term goal, even if you have advantages like money.

Some people need less discipline to achieve things 100%

I mean yea it is. Pleasure doesn’t create lasting happiness. Money makes it easier to be happier but to a point. Studies have shown after like 110k/the ability to live comfortably money brings minimal happiness

This is why I personally enjoy the idea of engineering your environment to support good habits and deter impulsive decisions. Trying to start and stay committed to something is hard, but having the tools to work on it immediately available will improve your odds of working on it every time you see it. For example, dumbbells are always in my living room. Because of that, I workout more than if they were in my closet. I also tend to have pull-up bars in convenient hallways. I will likely have a journal and pen sitting on a living room too because I want to write

I am sorry for what you went through, but do not blame yourself, he is the one who lost you and not the other way around, sometimes people get lost in their emotions and get pressured by norms, family and society, other times you might have been dealing with a narcissist but what you need to know is that you need to move on, forgive and forget, if he is not willing to sacrifice for you than he was not the right guy for you in the first place, true live is about respect and sacrifice, if those 2 factors are not there than it wasn't love, it was just a bunch of feelings accumulated, stop blaming yourself and learn from this experience, one day you will find the right person for you, it is a good idea to stay away from places that remind you of him in order to heal and rebuild, but true healing starts from within, start by forgiving him for what he did and most importantly forgive yourself for trusting him, and start rebuilding and loving yourself again, pamper yourself, you deserve it. Good luck and do not forget to know your worth and not to hold grudges because it will destroy you emotionally, forgive in order to help yourself and for your sake. Take care

What's really hilarious is that the boomers had "Social mobility". Single income households with excessive disposable income.

It was just meer luck that they grew up at the Perfect time. There was still "frontiers" to search for, and hire fresh grads for. When research didn't return "diminishing returns", etc.

Now? "Social mobility" practically doesn't exist. Cost of anything is too high if you started on the lower end to "work for your dreams".
