Because the assumption that your “dreams” are to make as much money as possible

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's worse than that. Most people dream of the financial freedom to pursue their interests. Making as much money as possible is the common theme, but it is a means to an end. People dream of vacation homes and sports cars and parties and material things, for sure, but those material things are tied to interests. People want to relax, and have fun, and engage in hobbies, and have loved ones. The insidious lie is that we must all earn the right to have those things.

The more insidious part is they want you to think they HAVE earned their vast wealth. They have not. They never have.
