  Some people are so poor, all they have is money.

    When you have that much money, you don’t have friends.

    You never know if they like you or your money and you’re afraid it’s the latter.

      Most will give up just about anything for the lifestyle, but when it wears off. When you arent struggling and you’ve spend a few yeats traveling, yachting, sleeping around, buying everything you dreamed of. What’s left?

    yeah i can confirm. had an acquaintance years ago who earned like 20k€/month (which is a lot around here). he seemed very unhappy to me. he did coke every weekend, and was generally very unhappy with his life (at least that’s what i suspect, my gut feeling).

      I have rubbed elbows with some rich people. They all had very shallow lives.

      Isn’t that funny, you can have ANYTHING you want and you can’t figure out what you want?

    Personally, I’d rather be dumb, unaware, happy, & have somebody who loved me ensuring that all my needs were met.

      awwww that was adorable… it’s so sad humans can have loving peers, a good life and still feel empty; instead of receiving help sometimes they get ashamed about it

  The secret to happiness is to acknowledge that it’s transient and fleeting and not really an objective, but something we experience at times along the way.

  Any achievement you can think of isn’t the result of being happy, often quite the opposite.

  Few things make me happier than watching the rich suffer.

  I would be happier than the dog if not for the fatal harms to my very essence, and well, not have 12 yachts.

  I would try to start a whole-ass country

  And when you starve to death in agony without being able to do anything about it, go with a smile and a laugh? MEH.

  Bilionaires are obscene, but the rest of us still need some money to live, not worry about dying constantly, and to simply participate in culture instead of living in a cave never communicating with anyone.
