Here's a question: is there an optimum level of wealth? Because sure sure, it's better to be off the street than on it, but I can see how there might be such a thing as "too much money" if you can't handle the burden or the pressure of knowing how to allocate it or use it best for the benefit of yo brotha man.
Like, perhaps wealth is directly related to one factor, and inversely related to another, and the best spot to be is the one where factors one and two balance out perfectly. Comfort versus guiltlessness?
To more adequately answer the question, though, I make it my life's goal to end up poor later on down the line. I may sooner or later change my mind as my perception of life as a poor man changes, but for now I want nothing to do with money.
