This is something I 100% agree with. I wouldn't exactly call myself a successful person. But I have things that I am proud of. Yes I'm only making less than the person who is flipping burgers in a developed country. But each penny is going into crypto. I've built a large portfolio of articles on STEEM and I've added some of them here: https://steemit.com/minnowbooster/@vimukthi/how-i-joined-steem-and-what-i-m-publishing-on-it-being-a-polymath-and-writing-on-philosophy-buddhism-psychology-spirituality
When I'm on the internet, I'm learning things. All that knowledge is going to come in handy and none of the burger flipping or working some desk job is going to do that. Look [The Marshmallow Experiment](https://steemit.com/psychology/@vimukthi/the-stanford-marshmallow-experiment-and-its-implications-on-the-economy-and-democracy) It is people who put down the immediate gain in the name of a better future that perform well in life.
