Is building wealth just an illusion?

Building wealth without stepping on anyone else—just pure wealth building!
Let’s be clear here: I’m all for having money. Money matters. But getting filthy rich by screwing people over? That’s just insane. Not for me.
Why bother with the illusion? I mean, look at it. From the second you're born, you're just aging. You're getting older and older until you eventually die.
But sure, at the moment of birth, you're basically at peak youth, right? And you think you've got enough time to focus on wealth building?

Is sex just some massive illusion? I mean, if we actually got younger and more fit by having it, then sure, I'd get it. But instead, you wake up one day feeling totally wrecked and worn out—just an old shell with a limp rod and a shriveled-up lady parts—so what’s even the point of the whole thing?

Is life just one big illusion? If we were actually getting younger as we lived, I might be able to wrap my head around it.

But this... 🤷

Is posting on this forum just a total illusion at this point? I mean, I wouldn't even mind if the posts were just drying up...

Is eating a cheeseburger just a massive illusion? Every bite feels like there’s less and less left...

Look, let's be clear here—I'm all for having money. Money matters, obviously. But I'm not about that crazy lifestyle where you get rich by stepping on people.
It feels like an illusion when you think about it. From the second you're born, you're basically just aging toward the end... life just slips away.
But if you could go back to the moment of birth and actually stay young and vibrant forever... man, would you even care about wealth then?

Go back to hell?🙏

I read the word Godching, and I honestly thought for a second it was some weird, modern spin on the word God.
Turns out, it was just a typo on my part.😉
The enrichment of illusions? Hmm... definitely not. It feels very real to me.😁
