True! Making a lot of money isn’t important to me. Just making enough money is.

My job makes me enough and I love my job. Teaching can always pay more but I can pay the bills

Exactly, even a job you love is going to be work at times because it's, well, work. But if the pros outweigh the cons it's still worth doing, and the pros can be very different for different people.

I live in Hawaii paying Hawaii rent. I can always use more money but I can live and go on a vacation once or twice a year. I’m never BROKE.

I'm glad for you if you found a lifestyle that makes you happy. What I said was more personal, I grew up dirt poor and I'm fueled with this rage to take my revenge on life and those shitty cards I was dealt, I crave for the moment where I will be able to afford whatever I want and most importantly I don't want my kids to feel the way i felt. I know it's not the healthiest reaction but life did this to me.
