RE: Let's talk about “who inspired me to instruct myself.

It is difficult for human beings to get bored. The life of a millionaire must be hard. Unless their aspirations are intangible, such as going to Mars or descending into the Mariana Trench. I don't know, ordinary people have more tangible aspirations, which keep you busy and developing. If you already have almost all your desires fulfilled, you start to get bored.
Motivation is the fuel of personal development. I would say that good artists have almost all been poor for most of their lives, which is good creative fuel. The opposite would be to have all the tools available to create. And then I wonder. Does creativity decline? Does access to everything make you want to lie on the couch and watch life go by?

Sort:  

I agree that if one has everything you get bored (you as in the wealthy not you as in you and me LOL).
There are plenty of films where the bored wealthy set bets on the poor idiots or provoke wars just out of fun.

The poor has no time to break their brains about something like that. It's more about how to get some food on the table and pay the next bill, the on on the top.

I wonder if marketing will have a long life. It's no part of Gates' plans for the new world order same for the nasty new head of the WEF who finds free water for the people (he is for sure not included) already a luxury.
