Got it in one Tony. Spirituality. If my bandwidth allows - resteemed.
--I look back over my life and money has played a large part. Not a huge part, but always there, reminding one that without spuritual faith one is living on a world edge of disaster. I never had a speed boat or jet-ski, I never thought about it. When w/e fun of that nature came up, someone gave me Lian of one. I sailed, but others owned yachts. I built my own fast cars for racing in the bush bashes but we did it bitsa and stripped other same models for parts. When I owned a hole full of sapphire I enjoyed a holiday at the casino, but just as easily enjoyed going back in the hole after, too. If I wanted to travel o/s, I would dream the end result, and back-plan from there to what was necessary, then let it go, and it would show up. Money is a bit like grit or graphite. Thinking on the money, and it is grit. Working at the quality, and money becomes a graphite, secondary, it makes work easier but is not the action. I would never denigrate it, but I've lived my whole life without more than sufficient. I'm happy, I'm rich, with many friends, much kudos, but only sufficient cash.
--And extra thought punching this out with one fingertip, says that I never did work for the money. Sure, I remember one job from which I received $37/week for turning up at work as wages (1975ish) and $50/day in danger pay, for climbing to top of four storey Bank wall of furnace brick, and jackhammering the wall out from under my feet with a 180lb hammer and a hose that led down two storeys. Sounds stupidly dangerous now, but I was younger, immortal minded, and the money was good, but it wasn't about the money. I was a team player and we all did demolition that rules wouldn't allow today. It was FUN! You can't worry about money when you live and drive and do everything at the edge. 😇
Probably may not get resteemed. Out of bandwidth, but it will depend on your sixth day. I will try again, hopefully before you lose your oblong arrow. 😯
