RE: A simple life of luxury

in #money7 years ago

I think what you strive to and where you come from is a great place to be. I grew up in a simple home where we always had what we needed with the occasional nice holiday, but not extravagant, the value was in being together and the occasional simple luxuries.

My father came from money which we never saw as he denounced the family money after a fallout with his father who seemed to value money over the happiness of his children. Hence as I said before dad raised us to find more value in the real things in life.

I couldn't really see myself driving a SLR Mclaren regardless of my appreciation for what an engineering marvel it is, I would also have more appreciation for enough money invested to be able to live a simple, stress free life with enough time to share bonfire nights under the stars with good people. To taste foods in other countries and do enough traveling to be able to know and understand more about how the world ticks, the finer details.

Teach your daughter about the real valuables and share plenty of them with her and those who mean most to you. Have a great week ahead

If everyone had more of this in mind there are plenty of resources to allow for it. Too many want for too much without ever having enough.

Greed indeed is a destructive thing. Great to be part of online community with people that have good hearts and thoughts.
