Epictetus offers a revolutionary redefinition of wealth that shifts the focus from external accumulation to internal satisfaction. True wealth is not measured by how much we own but by how little we need to feel content. This insight reveals two paths to prosperity: acquire everything we desire (impossible and exhausting) or reduce our desires to match what we already have (achievable and peaceful). The wealthy person, in this view, is not someone with the most possessions but someone with the fewest wants. This approach to wealth is both practical and liberating - it puts prosperity within everyone's reach regardless of economic circumstances. It's wealth that depends on wisdom rather than luck, character rather than inheritance.
