Chasing Wealth Is Backwards

October 22nd

“The shortest route to wealth is the contempt of wealth.”

—Seneca

Letters From A Stoic

Seneca emphasizes that true prosperity isn't in the pursuit of material wealth, but in our attitude towards it.

To be rich isn't to amass a large fortune, but instead to need very little.

So, what are you really chasing in life? Is it endless accumulation or genuine contentment?

Seneca invites us to consider that achieving wealth could be as simple as recognizing how wealthy you already are.
