when will you take a backseat in life?

like every day chiong. Work so hard.

I see some people, got 1 car, not enough. go for a sport car.
Got 1 house, not enough, go for 1 more condo.

when will they be satisfied?

and more importantly, when will you take a back seat in life? Is there like a $$$ figure? or a age number? or certain ambition or achievements?

please share!

for me, i think if i got house/car, no debt. i wanna take backseat liao. enjoy the peace in life.

So it is not about being insatiable. It is about being practical.

Everything we hv is impermanent.
We cannot bring with us.

If humans are so easily contented then we'd still be living in caves and be happy with hunting and gathering.

this kinda thing is an ego thing not a logic thing so no its neh enough. just like some men got 1 woman not enough need more :(
When you start to hang around your peers or ex-classmates, you will be driven to get more to hao lian next time.
Why stop at one ?

Not so sure about memories.
Cannot rem the details in my past.
Like I am shifted to another parallel universe.

I have no debt - Just a fully paid BTO.

Retired in 2018 at 40 years old.

I didn't even go into the backseat... Straight into the boot.

Tang ping 躺平 already. Useless liao.

Chiong so hard for what? Credit others claim. Their sai, they blame you.

$$ not bring to next life anyway. Just lie flat…

"Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21).

They’re seeking fulfillment in things that can’t satisfy (Ecclesiastes 5:10).
