The lesson here is, it can be depressing to have money problems, but money and a luxurious lifestyle won't cure depression.

I'd like to give it a shot...just once. lol

My experience as a stockbroker led me to set one of my life goals: to grow old without becoming a bitter old man. Too many prospects & clients complained about how crappy their life was, in spite of having sufficient assets to have a comfortable retirement. Many still griped about the lousy jobs, lousy bosses, lost/missed opportunities, etc.

I avoid dwelling on missed opportunities, mistakes I've made...that's what wives are for (j/k). Would I like to have a do-over, or two? Sure, but I also think through what would have happened with a do-over. Instead, I'm thankful for the path that took me to where I am today.

Killing yourself won’t solve your money problems either.
