It is impossible to store wealth, so that we are protected from hardship. We must always be vigilant against threats. We can store food, but we cannot store the wealth derived from holding assets desired by others and we cannot (permanently) protect ourselves from working for others.
How can we store money, whatever it is that we store can equally be collected by other people, so they will not want it and we will have no advantage to employ them. We cannot store something that we can be sure will be desired by others, they might not like to continue to buy it. There is nothing (no asset) that others can be sure to value in the future.
We are at the mercy of other people and must collaborate with them, to get what is the most desired currency of the day.
The misanthrope and recluse is not able to remain that way for long, as their savings will run out.
