People that can never get enough and always want more more more won't ever be happy if they become wealthy or well off. Because they can't stop and smell the roses. So often those are the type of people that use money to buy things and not freedom.

I could have made a shit ton of money if I would have traveled or been away from home. I decided I'd be there for my kid and mot pursue money as the end all be all. Money was not the most important part of life? Not for me anyway.

I was there on weekends to coach his sports teams. I wasn't out drinking with buddies. I was present.

Most of the kids on the team, their dads didn't come to the games and most ended up at our house to hang because their home environment.
