A barber must be present for every haircut, trading hours for dollars. A tech mogul builds an app that mints money while they sleep.
SaaS subscriptions and AI marketplaces, fortunes that grow on autopilot — it's there you'll find gold and happiness, we're told.
The barber clocks out at six, eats dinner with family, and never misses an important event. No yacht, no Aspen chalet. Just a life rooted in presence, not possessions.

Society crowns the likes of Jobs, Musk, and Bezos as gods of ambition. Titans, sure, but the one to emulate revealed Himself long ago.
