<p><span style="background-color: transparent;">We all deserve happiness.</span><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>We see the poor, the rich, the young who want to grow, the married who want freedom, the single who want love, the broken who want to heal. Everyone carries a burden with a different want of the heart.</p><p><br/></p><p>*The poor boy* wants money to survive, to provide, to start his dream, build a sustainable business, live a luxurious life and have a sense of fulfillment.</p><p>*The rich man* wants peace. He wouldn't mind losing part of his assets to restore the peace he thirsts for.</p><p><br/></p><p>_One has money without peace. The other wants peace without money._</p><p><br/></p><p>*The young* want to grow, but nobody tells them that growing comes with responsibility, accountability, societal expectations, people's opinions, emotional distress, family issues and toxic friendships.</p><p>*The old* wish to be young again, to go back in time, one more time. Because at old age, the anxiety of death approaching makes them wish time could be rewound.</p><p><br/></p><p>_One chases the future. The other longs for the past._</p><p><br/></p><p>*The married* long for freedom — to be set free from bondage, from the monster, the assault, emotional distress, lack of support for dreams, the bills, the exhaustion.</p><p>*The single* long for love — to taste it while it lasts, to go on dates, have fun, and enjoy their best moments in quiet places, alone in a dark room.</p><p><br/></p><p>_One wants to escape love. The other wants to find it._</p><p><br/></p><p>*The broken* wish to heal — from pain, from trauma, from betrayal by friends, relationships, family. They long to heal and be happy one more time and have reasons to keep living.</p><p><br/></p><p>Everybody carries a weight of burden they never express. Individuals may look happy outwardly but inside they feel terrified.</p><p><br/></p><p>Maybe happiness is not having everything, but finding peace in what you have while you reach for what you want.</p><p><br/></p><p>I hope someday, everyone gets what they desire and finds reason to be happy one more time. Not the fake one, but genuine happiness within.</p><p><br/></p><p>@FP</p>
At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
Top Engagers
Most Engaged Content
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to between 7 and 20 community members with the best insights in the past month.
The winners are picked by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Contributor Rankings
The Rankings/Leaderboard shows the Top 20 contributors and engagers on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis
— as well as the most active colleges (users attending/that attended those colleges)
The all-time contributors ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly contributors ranking tracks performance of a user's insights for the current month. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on an all-time & monthly basis.
