A decade ago I discovered that coordinated treachery and fraud hopelessly infested the market for real property. This was a redpill I was almost incapable of digesting. I was not unaware of fraud and rapine, but the collusive nature and ubiquitous penetration of the perps rendering the market actually impossible of security was a blackpill.
After some (long) time to absorb and parse, I seem to have regrouped a bit, and my current pursuit of 'wealth' is basically centered on people, not things. My focus is not on acquisition, even of friends, but of beneficial impact on those people I am blessed to interact with.
So far, despite financial challenges, I do not regret doing good things for good people and disregarding my own personal wealth. When I die excess funds I accumulated in life will be dispersed to others, who did not earn them. While we can pretend that a will can effect our choice in who receives those funds, this is naive, and impossible to ensure. In fact, probate is at the option of courts, and the endemic corruption I have been forced to acknowledge invalidates any expectation that I have much ability to secure my assets in life, much less have any control after my death.
Therefore, simply being able to support my physical needs during my life is all that is required, or advisable. My sons have received financial encomiums from my life's work already, and no others are worthy of my accumulating assets to provide them, beyond my carpentry legacy and work to speak the truth.
It seems you are coming to grips with the basic reality I was forced to recognize at the cost of great cognitive dissonance and existential grief, and if you can undertake this without the psychic shattering that was necessary for me, you will avoid much trauma that I have not.
May the good you do return to you a thousand fold.
Thanks!
