plot twist: most people with more then enough money worry more about money then the ones with enough money.

It's like going to the gym. The first day you go is the last day you liked your body

I liked my body a lot more when I was going to the gym vs any of the times before or after. I knew I was weak before, though that first session really drove home just how weak I was, but then it improved in leaps and bounds at the start, so it was pretty easy to be happy with it.

Probably helps that I never really built a habit of comparing myself to others and would just compare my current self to previous selves.
