I’ve known several millionaires, from work and friends. They are nice people, and it’s true. They have a set of problems from that particular bracket and everyone seems to think money solves it all.

I have seen they have some very nice things from that money and some good times from it. I never have held that against people. Isn’t that supposed to be kind of the blessing of being in this country? Freedom and the fun of living in a country that gives you the option of capitalism’s bounty?

They are human beings with pain and hardship in the same categories we all do, health problems, family difficulties, deaths, struggles it’s all there for them as well.

If you claim to be a Christian do not imagine it’s all roses because someone has a big bank account. It’s not.

My rich buddy says he is just broke at a much higher level. ..that the feelings and pressures are basically the same.
I think it’s because they see money as a license to spend up to some higher limit, when if people lived a little more modestly, they would never want for anything.
