[00:00:00]This summer I was at a company that raised $15 and I got to see what infinite money feels like. It was an amazing opportunity. I actually love all my team members. Shout out to Interaxon.

[00:00:09]But I wanted to talk about the concept of money because to this company money is no longer real to the employees. It's a very small startup. They're about to raise another round that's going to be in the hundreds of millions. So they'll basically have infinite money to spend.

[00:00:23]So yeah, when I went to this company there was things I've never experienced before. Number one, we never had to wash our own clothes. We would send it off company they would do it, fold it all, and give it back to us. Every day was Uber Eats. We did not cook a single meal. The company literally flew me to Paris for one day just because they could. We went on a offsite to Yosemite right before launch. And these things are not possible without the amount of money they raised. And obviously I am extremely grateful for every single opportunity the company gave me. But I will have to admit my baseline level of happiness was not any higher than at home or at school. And I feel as if there's a certain point where once you reach like six figures or baseline threshold of money, your basic needs are fulfilled. So your happiness there is complete and it can't increase any more if you even if you throw money at going to trips, buying new clothing, your happiness isn't going to be that much higher. In fact, it might not even be higher at all. So if you're someone seeking millions and millions of dollars, I'm telling you life will marginally improve and most likely your happiness will still stay the exact same. Especially if you have a void you're trying to fill with money, that will never work. So you need to think deeply about what's actually going to fill this hole. What's the cause of it?

[00:01:29]Money is not going to solve all your problems. Peace.
