Fun and sad realization, I have everything I ever wanted and then some, 5 years ago this would've been my dream. Now I realise I was much happier when I had stuff to look forward to, was more innocent and truly in love. I'm still 8/10 happy rn but I realised there will always be a missing piece of the puzzle and no matter how much better life gets something will always lack or whoever is above will find a way to humble/teach me more lessons. You retire your family but now they lose purpose, you pay friends' gambling debts and now they gamble more, you give a nice flat sum to someone close to you and they stop working and become alcoholic. Money doesn't solve anything and just emphasizes people's trueselves, also as much as this whole new red spill space makes you think the "rat race" is bad, people actually do need it, I guarantee you most in their 20s when give 7 figures would just go insane and lose it within a few years while if they have a corporate ladder to climb they'll keep grinding until year by year time passes and they don't even notice, if they didn't have that and HAD to find ways to pass the time they would slowly start indulging in degenerate activities. Going to the gym was cool because it got me bitches at 19, now nothing matters I could be morbidly obese and just because I'm a semi-decent human I would still pull like mad because of my status. Physical stature was imposing to bros but not as imposing as a show of wealth. I'm new to money and I will need some time to get accustomed to this new life but it's nothing like I expected it to be. Also the constant double interest of anyone who gets close, the reluctance of talking about money because it always leads to dick comparison because that's where it always eventually ends, not being relatable to 99% of people, being scared of being taken advantage of. If I can give a few pieces of advice to my fellow degens who will eventually make it: -Stay anon and don't tell anyone anything, if you ever give someone money make them feel like that money matters a lot to you, -Avoid any unnecessary flexes and winning people over with money, -be a functional, normal, truly humble and likeable human being, you could always lose it tomorrow no matter how safe you play it, -get over your superiority complex ASAP, you ain't no special snowflake, you're still made by flesh and blood, -enjoy the grind, that's the most beautiful part, those deep breaths after big losses, massive celebrations after big Ws, capture all of them and make sure to not lose yourself in the process, -dedicate more TIME and not MONEY to your loved ones, sometimes solving their issues is easier with a few well placed words than a few bands to get it over with, -be kind and compassionate, help where you can and do some fucking charity, God put you in this position to leave this world a tiny bit better than what you found, stand for what is right and try to get evil out of your life, -don't do drugs. This is probably my most heart felt tweet ever, it came from a long convo I had with a dear friend, random photo attached because I spent a ridicolous amount of money to sugaR a year go for a yacht party I didn't show up to to go pick up my girlfriend from the airport, fun memories. inshalla(🇦🇪 Rashid bin Saeed : راشد بن سعيد)
