Soon we will enter the stage of our lives where money comes easily and quickly.
Making money has always been easy; you just have to be that much more clever, and that much more hardworking than the average.
And the average is average for a reason.
Becoming filthy rich is the hard part.
With most people, the more you make, the more you spend.
I've never been known as a miser aside from those who know me extremely well, such as best friends or family. This is because i've always helped whenever i could; that is how i was brought up. And even when helping acquaintances and especially friends financially, which is something I never hesitate to do, because at this age they're always grateful and always repay.
But those who know me extremely well know my true personality.
I have a ridiculously strong instinct for making money; if the money is there to be made, i will work till my life hangs by a thread if i can get it.
But i have an even stronger instinct for hoarding.
I'm aware that i'm not the most clever or the most hardworking person out there, although i'm just about clever enough and i work to my limits which is all i can ask for.
But i'm the biggest money hoarder out there.
And its people like Russell sage who have the moneymaking and hoarding instinct both honed to their peaks that die disgustingly rich.
I've been termed as someone who doesn't know how to enjoy life. People have said the biggest regret in their lives on their deathbeds would be that they wish they didn't work so hard.
My biggest fear in life is not giving my absolute best in anything i do. I refuse to die with the knowledge that i have not lived up to my fullest potential.
To me, enjoying my life isn't about spoiling myself on luxuries. There is no better feeling than having the respect and faith of other people. When people know you are capable and reliable and they trust you, that is when, i assure you, every moment you spend in their company is enjoyable.
I'm not a workaholic. Family comes above everything for me, and I will always put family as my top priority. I will always be available for family. Because family doesn't take up much time, and either way, its never a waste of time to spend time with your family.
What takes up time and is a waste of it, are distractions. And lack of discipline.
My biggest fear is losing to these evils.
