I’d rather not be obscenely rich and have no heart. Better a poor man who walks with integrity than a rich man who is crooked in his ways. I’ll die by that phrase.
…except possibly just a little more well-off than “poor” per se. Hey…I have dreams and aspirations too!
Just because you’re not, doesn’t mean you can’t be.
So perhaps the more accurate statement, would be: “i cannot become a billionaire.”
But is that true? And do you really need a billion? Wouldn’t, say, $20 million be “enough?” (it would for me)
You could do it, if you could discern when/where/how, to invest (not just money, but your time and effort to learn the right applicable things, in order to successfully facilitate the processes).
Money is filthy and tastes like shit. Having lots of it would probably increase the odds of putting it in your mouth at some point in your life, and that’s a risk I’d never want to take. I’d like to keep my odds of putting money in my mouth as low as possible.
On the other hand, I did once see a video of some british dudes setting fire to 1 million euros/quid/pounds or whatever they call that currency, then warming their hands from the soothing glow of the hearth. Still, I imagine leaf litter and split timber would work just as well, if not better.

Ew.

would you be willing to become a billionaire?
