The late Charlie Munger, Warren Buffet's buddy did an interesting talk on the difference between greed and envy. He argued that greed could be OK but not envy. Greed is going after what you want to make you happy, a fixed target. Envy is going after something bigger or better than what someone else has, a moving target.Sport is really where the “integration “ shows up . We ran a program this summer on behalf of the SeaScouts and Cadets in Oakville. Ninety five percent were non white kids . Regular enrollment was eighty percent white kids . My help at football camp ( soccer ) was a complete smorgasbord of kids . We went to watch my friends kid at Canadian footballcamp , it was less integrated. Even getting girls involved at high level sailing has been a challenge, only changing because funding mandates make it happen .
But back on topic , the sooner you realize ( for me anyway) there will always be someone with more money , learning to be content with what you have will help. Learning to be content is almost therapeutic.

There's camping and there's tenting. A friend's wife detests tents because, as a kid, every summer they'd go west to visit relatives. Her dad wouldn't pay motel rates so they drove all day and then stopped late, set up the tent, Coleman stove and ate out of a cooler. Next morning it was pile everything back into the car and drive all day. That I call tenting.Sometimes lack of participation in certain "Canadian" activities is deeply rooted in cultural attitudes.
Parks Canada had a huge blitz a few years ago, trying to get more Asians to go camping.
They were trying to change that demographic's attitude that sleeping in a tent was for people who never came from countries where not having a roof over your head was a daily fact of life:
Summer school: Star reporter, who grew up believing camping is for wealthy folks, heads outdoors with Ontario Parks’ Learn To Camp program
Star reporter Tony Wong goes camping for the first time. Third in a series on summer school.
When we told everyone we sold our home and were going to live in a tent while we travelled the world by motorcycle, most of our Canadian-raised friends were like, "F* yeah!" My parents, on the other hand, were highly distraught believing we were choosing a life of destitution and doing so on a mode of transportation only used by peasants who couldn't afford cars.
They were so very ashamed that their son was living in a cardbox box under a bridge...
Does she say, "What for?" a lot?I will give you my mom's telephone number (it's a landline, of course) and you can explain to her the difference.
She may want to feed you first.
