Ever since (2 yrs) I started investing in Crypto and Stock market, my net worth has grown from mere 200k to 700k.

I dreamed of my net worth reaching 300k —> 400k and was imagining 500k would be lifetime savings.

Now that I have 700k, it’s very difficult to detangle and live my life without thinking about my net worth so much.

I am very happy and thankful with where I am but I feel am slowly sinking for some reason and greedy for net worth to reach 1M. Off course I already know I won’t be satisfied once I reach there.

I know folks here have much more TC and net worth. Wondering how do you deal with sudden influx of paper money and how do you detangle your life around it coz there is no upper limit?

Edit
Didn’t check blind for a day and this blew up crazy. Thank you for sharing your perspective and had a chance to go through numerous comment and below are most interesting takes from my POV that I’ll ponder more on.

- [ ] You’re addicted to having more money because you haven’t yet found something else to satisfy you at a deeper level
- [ ] Being able to recognize this important problem with greed is already a great step towards keeping your sanity and living a healthy life
- [ ] Read “Psychology of Money”
- [ ] Find a purpose in life thats not revolved around TC and NW.
- [ ] Remember easy come easy goes
- [ ] You should change your mindset to realize that 700k is only a start
- [ ] Live like you are poor. Money is not everything


TC - 240k
