Something I Don’t Get We’re living in the best era in human history—and almost no one talks about it. Think about it: even the lowest-income earners in the West today have access to medicine, food, entertainment, and transportation that kings, emperors, and even Rockefeller couldn’t dream of. That’s not an exaggeration. We’ve won the lottery of time and place. Most of our core needs are handled. So why do so many keep chasing more, like it’s never enough? Sure—if you’re building something meaningful, ambition is fuel. But the endless pursuit just for more status, more numbers, more stuff? Feels like we’re forgetting how insanely lucky we already are. Being average today is extraordinary by any past standard. Appreciate that. Share that. Most people won’t—and that’s exactly why you should.

Crazy how we live like royalty and still forget to feel rich.

Exactly, the only thing is you need to do is live And if you want non-linear opportunity, do things with optionality And that’s also never been easier, the internet and blockchain are leverage platforms

I think the main problem might be that we compare ourselves to others, while in reality, we already live much more comfortably than our grandparents did.

It's getting wide in this space. Someone has a good project instead of building on that to make it a successful one by gaining a good name and reputation. Instead, that fella decided to rug in the name of wants and needs. I don't believe that. It's all part of the game, and that's been the intention all along.

Hard agree. Also, X is just chock full of info about this... Deep into the rabbit hole, you find more and more stuff. Remember, not everything needs to be the full truth, can it can be trolls or simply rage bait. So tread carefully and use critical thinking. I think I made my mind, but I did have plenty of great convos with @proxystudio.eth so I think I owe them the benefit of the doubt. That said, it does not look good. Their interpretation of what happened is wildly different than the one the Velodrome team said ("I had a change of heart and returned the funds" vs "I got caught while trying to launder it"). @wagmialexander is just going off on X. If the part of taking the name Alex after their "victim" is true, that is just... out there...

Except we had all of that stuff in the late 90s except we also weren’t addicted to tech, the cost of living vs average income was much better, gas was cheap, the dot com bubble, 9/11 and Columbine hadn’t happened yet, etc. So if you are comparing stuff to your own lifetime or your parents lifetime, things are getting worse.

Maybe it's just that we feel like our goal's still way out of reach.

I almost agree with what you said in general, but if you lived in some countries in the East or Middle East for just one day, I have no doubt that your opinion about the best times will completely change.
