Lots of people get sucked into their jobs quickly and forget to live life—it shocks me a lot. It’s hard to talk to those people; like you said, the conversation dies out.
I don’t understand how people can’t have visions. We only live once, so we should use our time wisely. Earning money is one thing, but keeping it and growing it is another. You don’t need a lot of money to live off your investments. So many people are just scared to leave their comfort zones, and as a result, they are trapped in the typical life cycle.
