You topic made laughed because it's look like you are forcing yourself to make money at all means. The mindset in kid and the mindset in adult sometimes looks alike for achievement. What you like to achieve in the childhood display in the adulthood too. There are sometimes that the place of residence also change the thinking of human beings. Many people study hard in their school days to secure a good job after the university education but irony is found in many of them. And in most time childhood thinking becomes nightmare.
Agree. He thinks too much about earning much money. He even assumes that his wife and kids feel unhappy if he can't get much money, it is surely a wrong mindset. I also have a wife and kids, they always happy whatever the money I get everyday. They thanks to God every time I can come back home safety. Health, safety, togetherness are something more important than money, it can't be be equated with money.
Anyway, childhood thinking shouldn't be a nightmare if we think more realistically. When we are a mature person, we must think more realistically and not to think idealistically.
That is the pressure of a man, a breadwinner in the family, he is living for his family, not just him. are you happy when you can't make enough money to feed your family? That's what he's going through. your wife and children don't complain when you don't earn much, but are you happy to give them a full life like other families? one more thing, health, safety, solidarity... no money, how do you get those things?
