RICH IS THE MAN WHO HAS ENOUGH.
High-performing men start making serious money, and instead of feeling free, the lifestyle just expands with the income. Better house, better car, more toys, more debt, more pressure to keep the machine running.
That's the HENRY trap: High Earner, Not Rich Yet. You're making money, but you're still working for it, and eventually the appearance of wealth starts costing you the freedom you were chasing in the first place.
There's nothing wrong with having nice s**t. The problem is when you need the s**t to prove you've made it.
Another zero won't fix that. At some point, you have to decide what enough actually means.
