I don't consider myself a wealthy person and I'm not a Bitcoin multi-billionaire.
I just enjoy making money, always have. But at the same time I'm not a spender. I don't buy things because I "want" them. I buy things - most of the time - because I "need" them. My phone is like 5 years old. One of my rigs is 8 years old. I don't have a care (sold it before the halving). I have three pairs of shoes (yay one new pair) and a bunch of jeans, cargo pants, t-shirts and hoodies. My largest monthly expense is my rent.
If I would buy everything I want, I'd be living month-to-month like many other people.
If you stop buying shit you don't need, stop buying things on credit or instalments and generally spend less than you're making you'll eventually reach a point where some people might think you're wealthy while in reality your money management is simply better than theirs.
Some of the comments took me right back to the time of internet forums and people thinking that they can postand say whatever they want on privately owned forums because you know, free speech.
