Do Rich People Think About Money Differently?

[Byebyebtc]

In a situation where one is broke, he will feel that money will be the awnser to majority of problems he or she faces. it will be considered a silver bullet, even if there are other problems to be solved.
But rich people recognise other problems well, since Money issues isn't a major problem. Their mindset will be building, investing etc but that of the broke people is different.
So I think that rich people think of money in a different way

it is not that different in the first world either, they just hide it better. Like for example the problem in the USA isn't about the left vs right, hell they do not even have a proper political compass there, in USA the "left" and the "right" is unique, and unlike what we have in anywhere else.

The problem there is between the rich and the poor. A leftist and a right win poor person has more in common with a leftist or right win rich person, and yet they do not realize this unfortunately.

Unfortunately not many people realize this, and yet for some reason there are defenders of it and still think that this is the way to go. In reality in the USA, both sides just serve the rich and whoever wins things changes for the public. Sure rump was a bit weirder choice, that is not the same as others, but I do not see that much of a huge change or difference between Bush and Obama when I look back on history and what they achieved. Rich just care about themselves and nobody else.

I often see rich business mogul say that “money can’t buy happiness.” That may be true for them, but for many ordinary people, money means something different.

In today’s economy, a lot of people struggle to make ends meet. Having enough income brings security and peace of mind. Less stress about money usually means a better quality of life.

So I wonder, is there a level of income where more money no longer improves happiness? Or are very wealthy people simply out of touch with how most people live?

*money cannot buy everything. It can’t bring back time or loved ones who are already gone. But it can change family stories in other ways.*

The term happiness is not the same for everyone. Happiness is different for everyone and that is why we cannot associate money with happiness all the time.
For happiness can be travelling, for some it can be having a lesiure time at home, for some it can be spending time with friends or family.
We need money for many cases but for some we don't and that's the reason why is important for many of us.

I have seen people in my hometown who make enough money for their survival and are happy in hometown.
They don't want to relocate to the busy city to earn more money and are content with what they have.
Money is surely an important part of our life but it's not everything.

He is one of the richest people and was once ranked as the richest person in the world in terms of total assets and money, but he said something like this:

"Whoever said 'money can't buy happiness' really knew what they were talking about," Elon Musk wrote in a post on X on Thursday with a sad-face emoji.

Only poor people and complete idiots believe in something so stupid such as the claim that happiness could be bought with money. By even the most basic and rudimentary definitions of happiness, it is clear that it can not be attained this way. What is often an overlook case is that a middle class person who is very unhappy is going to even have it worse if they were to become suddenly rich. Most of the people that I am referring to have due to their ignorance have no idea of the variety of problems and challenges that come with wealth. A limited brain is incapable of analyzing an abstract position of someone else when it does not have any direct experience of said experience, and this is why idiots believe that everything is perfect and easy when you are rich. It couldn't be further from the truth. As soon as you are at a fair level of income or wealth where survival is no longer a question, which is the case for the supermajority of people in the west, then wealth does not bring improvements to your mental state.

The happiness he meant isn't being able to buy anything and do whatever you want, but we can guess what money can't buy "time", time with family, and quiet moments with a good night's sleep without having to worry about the prospects of the business he's working on before bed.

More time with the family does not necessarily equate to more happiness. In many cases the family members are idiots, you are the idiot, both are idiots, or there is a complex web of drama and stupidity like in the case of Elon Musk. Many wives, many children, spoiled children, terrible relationships. Instead of learning from examples, poor people are even deluding themselves deeper. If you analyze the top 50 richest people on the planet, you will at most find a couple of healthy individuals. Everyone else has many issues, and that only considers the stuff that we know about them. This means that on average they are even more fucked up and worse off than they are. All the data confirms that most people can not handle wealth and it makes their life much worse.

Despite the fact that being a rich person can not prevent you from death or sickness, but still the greater the abundance of your money the greater the security, power, and enjoyable life. That is why everyone is keeping pursuing and struggling to become rich while forgetting that money is not everything in this life, and ordinary people always keep thinking that when they become rich they got everything.

I'm my opinion the wealthy people are not perceiving money differently, even though in today's world, being a rich person is something important, reason is that, for you to have a free mind set wher eever you are in this world you have to be rich because money can make things easier for you.

Money can never provide security in life, but still people give more priority to acquiring wealth because without money they cannot do anything. Although money cannot restore human health, people have the confidence that it is possible to protect themselves only if they have money. To live well in the world, there is no alternative to having money, but everything cannot be thought of depending on money. In the real sense, money can sometimes be something special to some and sometimes it is worthless. The thoughts of those who have money will definitely be different from those who do not. A rich does't get everything in life only by having only money.
