I'm not talking about financial freedom. At around 10M you have financial freedom. I think competition is a great tool for personal growth, but would you run the score up on your child in a game of basketball or would you try an teach him a few tricks to up his game so the next time you both enjoy the game more.

At the end of the day I think we need to spend more time sharing a little more. ME included.

I'd hope future me runs up the score in basketball. I don't really enjoy zero sum games unless I am winning. Maybe our society is fucked up, but a lot of people get immense pleasure over dominating others. Best to let your child know that's the world you are walking in.
