To give OP a boon, my friend’s mother had a plaque with a saying along the lines of “I was born against my will and I will die against my will. So please let me at least live like I want to.”
I think that’s a good philosophy to approach your own life and the people you encounter.
Hmm. I don’t know about that. Maybe certain very rich people have more freedom regarding the way they can live. I just have to do 9-5, no questions asked.
How much control do we really have though?
Many parts of your life are determined by where you live and who your parents are.
Born poor in a rough area, you're very unlikely to be the next Steve Jobs no matter how hard you work.
I’m going to live like a billionaire… I am going to live like a billionaire.
Mate, you have so very little actual free-will. There’s still a debate if you even have free-will at all. If it’s even a thing or just a concept we came up with.
Depends what you want. Do you want your income to be stable and predictable and not too low? Then that’s your best bet. More interesting usually comes with less stability or possibly less income to start.
I certainly enjoy not being homeless and would like to continue not being homeless. If I can actually buy some things that aren’t the absolute cheapest worst possible option as well that would also be good.
