Some people have everything and still wake up bored. Stuff can’t fill the space where a reason should go.

Things solve the problems that things are for, and they are genuinely useful for those. What they cannot do is supply a reason to get out of bed, which is a different kind of shortage and does not respond to buying. Having enough matters and nobody should pretend otherwise; the point is only that more stops helping once the shortage is somewhere else.

Test where yours is. Ask what you would do with a free Saturday, no money involved and nobody watching. Whatever you answer is pointing at the reason shaped part, and it is usually cheaper than you would guess.
