It’s neither healthy nor unhealthy, it’s just not on the real axis. More on the imaginary axis for me. Beyond “it’s a problem to be solved,” which I solve with mediocre competence when I can, and fret about when I can’t, I just can’t bring myself to take it very seriously.

It strikes me as similar to comics or other fandoms, which I can’t take seriously beyond a low satiation point for eerily similar reasons. The economy is just Comic-Con with more boring collectibles and trading cards and stuff.

You can get super-clever and genius-level impressive with both money-fu and comics-fu but I’m just not clever in those ways or interested enough to work hard to get medium clever. So even though it costs me other sorts of minor pain and annoyance, I don’t go deep.

It’s a bit like negentropy. The more money you have the less information you know you don’t have, but you might not notice or care because money makes what you do know seem beautiful and complete.
