Interesting post bro, keeping up with the Joneses is definitely a losing game. If the neighbour has a new car, new washing machine or whatever that's none of my business. I get by with what I have without pretending to be richer or poorer. Living each day, building slowly on what we have is the way to go, realizing everyone is on a journey of their own therefore there's no need to compare ourselves with others.
Thank you for sharing and keep enjoying your Wednesday :}
