A first-person reflection (YouTube video by Kardec Trader) about the downsides of relentlessly pursuing money. The speaker says they chased money from ages 18–23, achieved substantial earnings ("a couple hundred grand a month" consistently for months), then entered a period of depression/existential questioning around ages 23–24 when further income increases felt meaningless.

Chapters

At 23. At 24, I went through, like a weird moment in my time, like a weird depression. From 18 till 23, six years, I chased money, just purely money. How can I make more money? How can I make more money at 23? I got to a point of making like a couple hundred grand a month consistently, right? For months and months and months. And then as like a 23, 24 year old, when you're making that type of money, you go, okay, like, what's next? Because I was chasing money so much that what's next? Put me in a. You wake up and you're like, okay, like, now what do I do? You make another extra 100, 200 grand or a million. It doesn't really change much.
