That’s great, but I’d still like to be able to afford a big vacation, please.

This is basically stoicism. Appreciate what you have. Try imagining you’ve lost it, it’s called negative visualization.

I get the sentiment of this post and just being satisfied and content with that you have, but I also feel like this is just “ money can’t buy happiness” wrapped in a new Wrapper. I know the OP post of it most likely did not mean it as that, but itt to feels like the bourgeois would this to keep us “poors” for wanting a small percentage of what they have. I like the idea for sure just see how it could weaponized against the 99%.

If more people thought like that instead of not being satisfied unless they get two offshore vacations a year things would be much better for everyone

I mean yeah, that’s what I do. I cherish my little joys and super cherish the big bonus ones. Still miserable, but I cherish them lol.

I just reached down to pet my kitty and he groomed my glasses so I’m on board with this.
