This is a YouTube video titled "The Best Thing About Being Financially Successful" containing a monologue or talk recorded in April 2024 discussing the personal reflections on financial success, the concept of having enough money, and the joy of philanthropy and generosity after achieving financial independence.
The wonderful thing about being really financially successful, though, is at a certain point you realize you have enough, and you go, well, I still love what I'm doing, but I already have enough money for me. Then after a while, you have enough money for you and for your heirs, and then you start going, what else can I do in this world that's good is money? And you start looking for your favorite charities, you start looking for scholarships you can endow, you start looking for random moments of incredible generosity, and it becomes pretty darn fun. As you know, we've been working for quite a few years since we became financially independent, and it's pretty fun to realize the difference you can make in the world. When you've figured out the money game and you've already taken care of yourself and those you care about, you can really reach out to a lot of other people in the world.
