Enough — The Philosophy of Wealth

Articulate, in your own words, what enough means for you — as a number, a lifestyle, a freedom-set. Recognize the hedonic treadmill operating in your own decisions. Stress-test your answer against Bogle's "Enough," Perkins's anti-deferral thesis, Burkeman's finitude arithmetic, Sandel's moral limits of markets, and the political-economy frame from M0. Produce the dated Enough Document — and be able to defend it without sounding like either an accumulation cultist or a renunciation evangelist. This is the module where the lens is named as partly inapplicable: "enough" is a values question, and trying to engineer the answer is itself the failure mode. What the lens can carry: the Enough Document is the product-strategy document — the artifact that forces explicit answers to questions the operational machinery would otherwise optimize past ("we'll just keep shipping features" is not a roadmap; "we'll just keep compounding" is not a life). The hedonic treadmill is feature creep that raises COGS without moving top-line satisfaction — you'd catch it in a quarterly review of any system you ran; the document is how you catch it in the one system you live in. And the time-bounded experiences are options with expiry dates: optimizing cash on the balance sheet while the options lapse unexercised is a recognized failure in companies and an invisible one in lives.
