"I left all traditional social media about 5 years ago" that's a wise decision, i think facebook, twitter, instagram, tiktok r things that we can live without them & life would go well, my self didn't use them for nearly 4y & i'm doing well i mean they aren't oxygen nor water!, i agree that most people just want enough money not to b worried & not necessarily really rich, i mean u don't need as much as elon musk has to live well!, of course how much money is enough differs from a place to another for example 2.5k-3k a month would b great almost every where but n switzerland for example that won't b enough because it's an expensive place also norway & iceland r expensive, on the other hand 1k a month is more than enough n most countries n africa, central-southern-south eastern asia, latin america & east europe, i think also health care & higher education fees needs to b included n the calculation n countries like germany & finland for example people have a great public health insurance & they don't need the expensive private ones + they have free higher education + they have a great public transportation systems where u often don't need a private car & expensive fuel, so u will have more money to spend on other important things, so is $1/4m enough- is it $1/2m or it's an entire million it depends on the place. wow 1.4 billion pound of cheese that's really a lot! nice post- well done- have a good day
