Mel Abraham separates wealth from richness: a high earner stuck working constantly isn't rich, but someone with automated income who controls their time is. Stop chasing the number. Chase the freedom it buys.
Richness isn't measured in dollars. It's measured in time and freedom. See, the person who's earning a million dollars a year but can't stop working for 2 weeks, that's not rich. That might be wealthy, but not rich. But the person whose machine covers their life while they choose how they want to spend their days, they are. So stop chasing the number. Start chasing the life the number is supposed to fund. Curious, what does being rich actually mean to you? Drop it in the comments. Love to hear.
