Money isolates bruh. The very thing you chase to gain acceptance
ends up causing more alienation.
yup
some of the most unhappy people i know or have known are very wealthy
the first time i moved to florida, i was seeing this guy whos family was rich. he spent his youth and teens in boarding school. he was a very depressed person and an alcoholic. a lot of his friends were rich people and it actually made him feel very alone as he ever wasn’t really sure if his friends were only his friends because of his status and if girls were only interested for the same reasons. he felt like his family only showed him love and affection through money.
my aunt is pretty wealthy now because of the work her husband does. she lives in a beautiful home on the inter coastal across from the road tiger woods, celine dion etc lives on. she’s an alcoholic and is always getting botox, feels like she has to wear expensive designer etc to keep up with that class she’s become apart of. she’s more self conscious and unhappy now than she ever was when she was poor or struggling
wealth brings a whole other plethora of problems, insecurities etc
we view it through a lense of envy and rose colored glasses but don’t ever consider the negatives. poor and middle class people envy rich for being able to just go on vacations and do whatever they want without having to worry about how it will affect their pockets. but we don’t consider that to them, that’s regular shyt. it’s their norm. and they probably wish they could find happiness in just the simple shyt. they won’t ever have appreciation and enjoyment of simple things or things that the poor and middle class will with things we had to compromise with and be creative about as children in terms of hobbies and finding enjoyment.
when you’re that wealthy and have access to every single thing, your expectations are higher and it takes more to impress you. a rich person and someone born into wealth won’t be able to appreciate simple shyt like those who aren’t rich can.
