Why Do Mega Wealthy People Continue to Work?

January 3, 2022 by Bautis Financial

Many Americans seek to retire as early as possible. So why do so many wealthy people continue to work, despite their ultra-high net worth?

At what net worth would you walk away from working? $1 million? $10 million? Why do the wealthy keep working and not “retire?” Here are three reasons…

Money doesn’t make people happy. Often times, people work because they find fulfillment in it.
The competition. Driven and self-motivated people prefer working even after they “make it.”
For many, happiness is derived from the work that made people wealthy in the first place.
