Nkooks, fairbalanced and sema,
Funny how you nguys keep going back more or less to wealth - other peoples - as the end all be all of life
I have said it umpteen times. Real wealth actually gives most of its owners depression;
Why The Super-Successful Get Depressedhttps://www.forbes.com/sites/alicegwalton/2015/01/26/why-the-super-successful-get-depressed/?sh=29200cf43850Dark reasons why so many rich people are miserablehttps://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-dark-reasons-so-many-rich-people-are-miserable-human-beings-2018-02-22If you have not discovered that by now like I did in 2010, after well over a ndecade spent obsessed with maney flom ablod,
you are in serious ti-rouble buddies. I know many of you have studied economics. Remember the concepts of Marginal Utility and Diminishing Returns?
Think of someone who has spent 7 days in the Sahara desert dreaming of getting cold water to drink
He spends each day dreaming and fantasizing about it, amid stunning sunrises and sunsets and beautiful sand dunes
that he never sees, telling himself, "when I get it, I will drink 20 liters of it in one sitting!!"
Then he escapes the desert into a small town, gets ihe water and starts drinking.
Glass one to 5 are heavenly, glass six and seven - not so much,
By glass 8 he even wants to throw the water away.
He then starts to question everything, wondering why he wasted the whole 7 days fantasizing about something that he now wants to throw away
Isapite.
The wise wealthy, instead of becoming prisoners of their own possessions, actually want to SIMPLIFY THEIR LIVES and do things like travel the world, get fit healthwise and most importantly
PURSE THEIR REAL PASSIONS THAT ACTUALLY MAKE THEM HAPPY, (like raising organic kukus in Kansas
or painting, or music, or starting a children's home and so on i.e whatever floats your boat) as opposed to rat-racing their whole lives at jobs / biznas they hate, to increase their wealth, only to find out they missed out entirely on life, and on nurturing
strong social relationships even with their own wives and kids, and end up committing suicide like Harvard educated billionaire Thomas L Lee

The list is endless.
Think also of former billionare Chuck Feeney. He wasted his life minting dollar billions only to realise that he and his wife only needed $2m for more than comfy retirement
, so he spent the rest of his life giving all the billions away.

America teaches its denizens to worship wealth - the so called American dream. Yet that wealth seldom brings lasting happiness.
In fact, once they have the wealth and get bored of it, they seldom speak about it because they have moved on to sorting their other troubles.
As always, unlike the three of you, I have provided evidence of my assertions instead of yapping fweeeeeeh with no basis
As usual the wise ones who can shunt their egos aside will see sense in what I am saying
Sadly, the rest will just have to discover it the hard way.
Ni hayo tu,
