Why do people have to want more than they have?

After a conversation with a colleague i was left feeling inferior because I didn't have any desire to take on a management position. I am quite happy being an engineer, working on the actual product and my time off being mine to spend with my family. If i took on a management role i would lose lot of these things just for money and status.
Am i wrong?

no, you’re not wrong. everyone has it in their heads that a managing position is somehow more fulfilling, when it’s completely up to you, and not everyone wants to have that position.
