I used to think being rich was simple: big salary, nice car, maybe some Bitcoin. But as I grow up, I am not sure anymore

In some countries, the numbers are enormous (such as Singapore, Switzerland), and yet everyday life is stressful: long working hours, high rent, and a lack of free time. Meanwhile, other countries such as Norway and Germany are working on making life easier to ordinary citizens: less work, more leisure time, healthier, more trust

I see more and more people (including me and my friends) wondering: Is all the money worth anything when you are tired, stressed, or anxious about the future? In others, youths are unable to secure decent employment and resort to crypto to stay alive, such as in Nigeria. In Guyana, new oil money is helping some, but only if it is managed well

So I ask you:
- Has your life changed with the "growth" of your country?
- Do you feel more secure, or less?
- If you could choose, would you want more money, more time, or more trust in people?

Honestly speaking, I don't know for other countries but as for my country insecurity is chopping up the dignity of the country, my country is turning into something else. We should even put unemployment aside first. The people are facing so much problems now in
 country that I don't even know which one to start with, should I talk about the inequality, inflation, kidnapping, arm robbery, Banditry or even the life of the innocent people that were lost in this situations. Crisis arises from different cities to another. we just pray that everything should be alright.
