| "more money makes a person more of what he already is ." (don't know the origin of that saying but I do like it)
with "more" money, some are more generous, others are more shallow...
me; i've had lots of money and never was the happier for it, the more i had the more of a consumer i once was, ever trying to feed the emptiness inside with stuff and diversions.
today: in sobriety, i live simply. i have very little money now and am delighted with my wealth.
