How much does it take to be wealthy?

in life •  7 years ago 

People are on their quest for wealth since the dawn of history. In terms of money, is being rich is the same as feeling rich?

Haven’t you ever met someone who is poor but happy and unexpectedly satisfied, that you didn’t know how?

In society; some people, no matter how big their bank accounts are, keep fighting for money. Others might have more than they need yet they keep complaining about what they can’t afford.

Being in possession of more money than needed to support your physiological needs means you are rich unless there are much more things that you desire. Feeling poor or rich is not about money, it is about what you want and can’t afford. Once you get the money you believe can afford your desirables you feel rich, otherwise you feel poor. No amount of money dictates who feels rich and who feels poor.
You become rich only when you stop wanting what you don’t own. It is not about what you possess rather what you are seeking to possess.
