I was listening to some celeb interviews today. They basically said, "the fame didn''t make me happy". It had me thinking that the only place you can get happiness is from within/your inner soul. While I'm not saying that fortune is bad it doesn't bring happiness. What happens when you reach those goals of fortune? The goal is to find yourself. Most of these celebrities are depressed.
Most of these celebs are more depressed than broke people. Wonder why? Because they neglected their soul for material possessions. You need a balance in life. This is why I'm not inheritably capitalist. I'd rather live comfortably than live rich. It comes with more problems.
I will call this foolishness. They wouldn’t change their fortune and to a lesser extent fame to be regular and “broke”.
The depression comes from whatever was done to attain it and maintain it. Those casting couches are real. Talent is a dime of dozen. Will you go the extra mile? That is what separates the haves and the have nots.
The saddest part is they can’t really open up about what has them depressed. I’m sure Jeff Bezos isn’t depressed. They’re depressed about what all they had to sacrifice and probably have winner’s remorse now.
