Does going public and getting rich make you happier? (with Yu, on The Happy Sexy Millionaire)

About this episode

Many people think that once they earn more money and reach their goals, life will be happier. But in this episode, I talk with Yu (有魚) about The Happy Sexy Millionaire and rethink one question: is happiness the finish line of life, or a way of living we can choose?

In this episode, we talk about several key ideas: After taking a company public and making money, why aren't you necessarily happier? What truly moves us may not be "reaching the summit," but the journey along the way How can AI become leverage for the output of a one-person company? How reading and output become compounding for personal growth and a personal brand What happens when you find something you'd do even if no one paid you?

If you've ever thought: "Once I succeed, I'll be happy." then this episode may make you think again: happiness doesn't have to wait until after success to begin.
