He could have exactly all that and be the mostly lonely man on earth.

I know a guy who has 2 kids, a beautiful wife, millions in the bank, a monster company, great friends... and is one of the loneliest guys I have ever met. To him, what he has is not enough. It never is. He can not simply "BE" and enjoy the moment because he is so caught up in what is coming down the road, the road that he has no real control over. Because of this he is not close to the ones who love him and it shows to everyone but him. He has it all but misses the point. Life is passing him by, he is miserable, and he has it all.

With all due respect, your 24 years old. You may be ballin' out of control and be light years ahead of me or anyone else on the success-o-meter, and I hope you are, but there is more to life that acquiring things, cash and people. The older you get the more you will understand what I mean. At 24 I would of thought the same thing. And I mean no disrespect by that, your mind just changes as you grow older and grow in life experience. My mind today at 33 is not even 2% of the same mind I had at 24. And I am still young. I can't even imagine what I will think at 50 or 80 and how much my priorities will have changed. Life is about the journey bro. With a million dollars or without it, it's all about the journey and who you share it with.

Set your self up for the future. That is a great idea. But you can't call others losers because they have a different persective of what success is. 10 years from now you will also have a different perspective.
