Not in the sense that I want to start a business and exploit people. I am probably misinterpreting a lot of the ideas of socialism/communism as I feel that if I think about making more money (investments, switching jobs, vying for a promotion) that I'm going against the core ideas and values of communism/socialism. I've mostly read/listened that to be a communist/socialist you are putting your community first and thinking of other people while trying to make more money is, to me, inherently individualistic.

The only reason I'd like to make more money is to live a more comfortable life and build upon it.

I hope this makes sense.
