More vs ENOUGH(sm) on Teddy Roosevelt’s Birthday 10/27



More vs ENOUGH(sm) on Teddy Roosevelt’s Birthday 10/27

Comparison is the thief of joy
Teddy Roosevelt

            More is a comparative – actually, if anything, ‘the’ comparative in the US.
            And even ‘let me cut off my brother’s head, so I can be taller,’ is never enough.

          More is a Sisyphusian delusion robbing oneself of joy

           
            More: ‘Bully! Or Bull?”

Who is rich? One who is ‘happy’ with what one has [Psalms 128:2]
 Ben Zoma in Ethics of The Fathers

            Ironically, More, Better, Now – has a habit of eventually becoming the ‘joyless’ – Less, Worse, Later.

            More--- The Bully
            OR
            ENOUGH(sm) – a ‘Personal Financial Life Planning Bodyguard©’
           
            Your choice.
