I mean, I got everything I wanted, and now I don’t want anything, and it’s great. Now I can pick out any transient want that comes my way, from something small like baking a cake to something larger like starting a new hobby, and I never have to worry that its getting in the way of me pursuing my actual life goals, since they’re already achieved. Seems to me that the pursual of ever higher goals is why we have the problem of the rich hoarding wealth - because it’s never enough for them to have “enough” and be done.
Weird. We led such different lives, but ended up at the same place. Who says our current reality isn’t soul-crushing?
