Nope, not at all. I had a decent salary as a software engineer but started out at 22 with a couple grand in my bank account from odd jobs I worked at in college.

The main thing it has done is free me to completely focus on what I want to work on without worrying about my salary.

Are there any downsides to becoming wealthy, or is it all upside like we all imagine it is?

I'm still sort of adjusting to it. I haven't really changed my lifestyle at all. I drive a minivan (no lambo here) and live in a modest house. At this point I can't really think of any real downsides.

I guess there's some new 'problems' of how to manage the money so you don't lose it. Luckily we have bitcoin for that ;)
