I feel your values can change. I’m not sure they’re innate. Goals can also change.

You want financial freedom. What values will you tolerate to achieve this? You won’t steal perhaps, so you value honesty.
But our values I feel are constantly put to the test & reshaped.
I would not steal for wealth, but if it’s to save the life of my child, yes I’d steal. So I feel there is a spectrum to our values, not just black & white.
Some things I really valued 20 yrs ago hold no value for me now.
