Let's focus on another part, connection and fun and experience.
Are these people often thought of as boring?
Yes, they are.
They are.
Deep down, they are boring.
I was boring when I was sitting there thinking money is only about numbers.
It's not.
Money is about adventure and possibility and generosity.
And you will often find optimizers.
I'll give them a challenge.
I'll give them a $100 challenge.
Also, you have to take $100 in the next week and spend it on yourself.
They cannot do it.
They will spend it on their dog.
They'll spend it on their kid.
They'll spend it on their partner, but they will not do it for themselves.
And I go, why didn't you do it?
They go, Ramit, do you know that if you put $100 in the S&P 500 and you compound that for the next 45 years, it'll turn into this much?
I go, I don't give a shit.
Spend the money.
