Yes of course you’re right about this too. I don’t intend to suggest that everyone can do this ego killing the way I did. My set of privileges are extreme. I will say however that I know many people - many who are monastics (i.e have no personal wealth) - who have gone about this in their own way. A spiritual journey is not something thank has to cost something. One could mediate deeply every day and volunteer in hospice and have deep spiritual awakenings and ego death without spending a dime. I hope that’s an encouraging idea.
