Our Celebrations

Most overnight millionaires, who win jackpots, lose all fortunes in the next few years. 

Still, we love celebrating the beginning of our journies without realizing that they are just starting points.

Some of my friends spent a fortune on their weddings just to be divorced a few years later. Probably they planned their weddings much more than they thought about their marriages. 

An acquaintance bought a Lamborghini when he joined a leadership position in a big tech company. Then he got laid off soon after.

It is always wise to celebrate once our journey is successful, not when it begins.

I agree somewhat, but for those who aspire being successful - Success is a continuous process not a destination.
