Are you rich and unhappy? Read this

The truth is that we human beings demand each time more that we already have.

So, rich people complain that money has slipped their happy days and those who are not so financially fortunate say that only money could complete their life, that they would surely get everything else on their own if only they had the means to do that. It is not accurate to say money brings happiness, because it doesn't.

We are never really happy, maybe just for the brief moment when we reach our purposes or complete one of our dreams. But then, very soon after that, a new totally different problem or desire arises to take that happiness away. Many people need it just to pay for food and shelter and they are happy if it's enough to provide just that.

But others, and I'm not talking here about rich people, they already have some living assurance and need more money for other desires or things they want to buy. Money does not equal happiness, it's even worse than that: because money exists happiness is harder to reach.

But then again, if not for money, we'd come up with something else that we would let interfere with our life and cause us an infinite diversity of problems...It's just human nature.
