We definitely don't talk enough about how utterly batshit insane it is to have the accumulation of money as your life goal.
Even disregarding the societal weight of wealth & the distribution thereof & pretending the endeavor is entirely politically & socially neutral, money is simply a medium for the exchange of perceived value. Simply acquiring ever more of it is functionally the same as dedicating your life to charging a battery not connected to anything.
