IT’S OKAY TO HAVE A NORMAL LIFE

A slow life is okay. A soft life is okay.

Most people don’t dream of being billionaire entrepreneurs—they just want a good, simple life. The reason so many of us feel like we need to chase mogul status is because social media told us we should.

You can’t just have a hobby anymore—it has to make money. You can’t just have a passion—it has to be monetized. Every interest becomes a potential income stream. Everything turns into hustle.

When every single person on Earth has a voice online, we get overwhelmed. Ideas, opinions, advice, grind culture—it’s non-stop. Should it be normal to hear 1,000 different takes before breakfast?

Every channel is pushing the same message:

Monetize your life. Quit your job. Build an empire.

I had a guy DM me once, saying he was 25 and his goal was to be worth $500 million by 30. I asked if he was even a millionaire yet—he wasn’t. That’s like a baby saying it’s going to run a marathon before it can crawl. We’ve skipped right past a normal, sustainable life and jumped straight into fantasy.

Everyone wants to be a mogul now. A CEO. An entrepreneur with seven income streams. Work harder. Grind longer. Never stop. And you know why everyone’s pushing this narrative?

Because right in their bio… they’re selling a course.

The truth is, you are their business model. They’re living the life they’re selling because they’re selling it. You’re the product. Their “get rich quick” scheme only makes one person rich—them.

The rented Lamborghini, the stack of fake stage money, the knockoff Rolex—it’s all part of the show. Tools to bait desperate people into buying in.

So here’s what we’re advocating for instead:

A soft life. A simple life.

Take your time.

Be intentional with what you buy.

Have a lazy day. Have two.

Let time slow down.

Not everyone needs to be a billionaire mogul.

But everyone should be an investor.

Investing is the smartest decision you can make—not just for retirement, but for freedom. Done right, it lets you retire earlier, work less, and live more. It lets you break out of this cycle of overwork and overconsumption. You get to live on your own terms.

It’s okay to want a normal life.

You’re not weak. You’re not a failure. You’re not “less of a man” if your dream is peace, not power.

You’re human.

It’s cool to chill.

To work a steady job, invest as much as you can, retire early, and enjoy your time.

Travel. Go to the gym. Eat good food. Play video games. Hang out with people you love.

The people who try to convince you that’s not enough?

They’re just trying to sell you something.
