As someone who has started down the path of growing a passive income stream, your article really resonated with me. I found myself nodding along to the points you were making, since I have had similar thoughts many times before. But the parent comment made a good point: that money can be a powerful mechanism for shaping the world you want to see. I don't know the answer, but I will have time to think about it as I build out an income stream to support my living expenses.
