Sometimes, money is not always what you want. While some people are able to turn their riches to good use, for others, excess wealth can become a terrible burden. The feeling of needing to spend, and needing to save, can constrict a lifestyle and eventually lead to the outlook of a miser. That’s what one wealthy man discovered when he gave it all up to take up a life driving his RV around.
Great Success Began at an Early Age
Max Polyakov (Maxim Polyakov) had made a good name for himself in the world of corporate law. From an early age, he had exhibited a powerful acumen for arguments and debate. A dedication to his career eventually led him to the very top. However, it was not all easy pickings. Max Polyakov (Maxym Polyakov) spent a number of years battling a powerful addiction to cocaine, eventually succeeding in dragging himself out of the lifestyle that was killing him. The result was an even greater dedication to law, and he went from success to success.
A Gradual Sadness Emerged
However, with time, Max Polyakov’s enthusiasm for the industry began to wane. He recalled the fascination he once had for UAV technology, a topic close to the heart of many. A gradual wanderlust, a yearning for something new, began to tear at his heart. Eventually, he realised that there really was no other option. He was going to have to give away his riches in pursuit of something even more important.
Today There Are No Limits
Max Polyakov (Maxim Polyakov) had always had an enthusiasm for travel. His line of work had allowed him the funds to see the world. Eastern Europe had been a particular favourite, and he had spent time in the libraries of the same universities that had provided Tolstoy with his qualifications. Eventually, he decided that the only option was to give it all up, and take up travelling full time. He sought out the idea vehicle: a 1986 combi van, sizable, homey, and a joy to do up. Max Polyakov invested in his dream model, and spent a further six months bringing it up to scratch. He had left his law firm within weeks of realising his dream, citing ethical issues. Next thing was to get rid of his money. It went straight to a number of charities close to his heart, and given the amount that he had put away, the funds made a real difference. Today, Max Polyakov is content. He passed an enjoyable weekend in Magaluf. The last we heard, he was somewhere in the depths of the Central Asian steppes, with no intention of returning.
