Means and Meaning – HappyRich Investor

Means and Meaning

Our HappyRich philosophy is based on these 2 words – Means and Meaning.

Can you connect the dots?

Means = Money
Meaning = Purpose

This forms our equation – Purpose + Money = HappyRich

To live a HappyRich life, you need to get this equation right.

Means is a way to Meaning. Money is a Means to a Meaning (Purpose).

Without the meaning, no amount of wealth – is enough or means anything.

I know people who have more money than they will ever need but are totally insecure. We all know someone like this.

I know people who have almost nothing but are totally secure and super-giving.

The good news is that we can still find our meaning.

The bad news is that we need to learn how.

Have you found your meaning yet?
