A Stoic Approach To Envy

As a sequel to my video about jealousy, let’s talk about envy. What is envy? How should we handle it? What can we learn from the Stoics in regards to envy? And is it really a bad thing?

6:19 | A small correction: the Stoics aren't fond of primarily pursuing material wealth, thus, over virtue and as the ultimate good.
