A person’s true sign of being “trapped by money”

has never been low income.
It’s—
once the expectation of “short-term no money” appears,
the whole person begins to shrink.
They don’t dare to change direction,
don’t dare to pause,
don’t dare to make mistakes,
and even don’t dare to let the account balance temporarily drop.
On the surface,
this is “being responsible for the future.”
But in reality,
what you’re often afraid of isn’t money itself,
but:
👉 Once you run out of money, your sense of security can collapse instantly.
So you’ll find:
many people say they want to change,
but their bodies cling tightly to
that little certainty of “at least I can still survive.”
The real issue is actually this—
are you now afraid of “not having money,”
or of “losing your sense of security”?
