Degen

Most people today have food, clean water, shelter, medicine, transportation, and access to information. Even the poorest among us live better than the richest kings ever did.

So here’s the reminder:

Don’t chase more thinking it’ll make you happy.

If you’re unhappy, it’s not because you don’t have enough — it’s because you’ve forgotten how much you already have.

No one needs to be rich to enjoy life.
You’re already living in extreme wealth by historical standards.

Stop comparing. Start appreciating.

Stay grounded. Stay $DEGEN. Happy holidays.

Stop comparing starts appreciating is based!

But I’ll had a little something:
If you really need to compare yourself with someone, the only person should be you.

Oh sure, we all have our different views, media ensures that In a way 

To me, the competition just seems too fierce

what resources I tried to access were apathetic at best, the shelter being offered were jail-like, I could leave, but in every other way jail-like, 

had to make my own way in a vehicle, which has slowly turned into a manageable home, but ever since the Supreme Court decision about homelessness I know it's a ticking clock

The suffering I've seem around me is heartbreaking, and most people just want to sleep it away send them to another area or something... 

Anyways not trying to be a downer, I hope it improves, but it seems like we're essentially just bags of money to most of the system

I know it’s controversial, but I don’t have much sympathy for homelessness in Western countries. Food, shelter, and jobs are very accessible—it’s hard, but very possible, and anyone can do it.

I agree mostly about the "most", but the ones on the streets I don't think they live better than those of old. 

There's so little opportunity for those who have already fallen into the cracks of society 

Back then you could go somewhere on your own possibly, nowadays, *everything* is owned?

The homeless(and others) are commodified, they get plugged into "services" that generate money off of them, but they have very little incentive to de-homeless them, they'd lose $$!

It *may* be a small percentage, but it's truly a tragedy when houses sit empty/etc

We could help, but we don't, it's easier/cheaper to look away

Exactly. With all we have today, happiness isn’t about more — it’s about appreciating what we already have. We should enjoy the moment, not compare. 20 $DEGEN always reminds us of this. Have a great holiday!

Some great advice comparing your path in life to anyone else's is silly enjoy it to the fullest appreciate what you have practice gratitude and treat others with kindness ✨

this is that rare blend of hard truth and soft landing

Money is just a tool. Our true wealth is already here: in the love of our family, the loyalty of our friends, and the strength of our values. The rest simply follows.

I agree with you 100% on this. May your life be filled with peace. 🤍🩵💚

The motivation i didn’t know I needed 🥹 thank you Jacek 🫶

Money might not make you happy but being broke sure makes life suck 🎩

What makes me unhappy is anxiety about the future and that is decoupled from what I "have". The future is an uncertain debt caused by the present with no terms sheet given in advance and a variable rate. It leads to a logical feeling that you do not have wealth you can count on.

yeah we're rich by historical standards , but unfortunately, so were the Romans before they rugged themselves 😬
Hat stay on 🫡🎩
