People replace the real God with other gods like the god of money. When all is lost they can't live with it or just exist being a regular guy, or say a nobody again. Whereas the Creator God is with us in rich and poor, good times and bad. Some say that's a crutch. Well, maybe, but most people are cripples one way or another. Like this guy. He has the world, when he had money but basically he had nothing “if not himself” (from the song My Way)

From another post a freeper brought up a really good point. Billions of people live on this earth making less than a dollar a day, and they don’t all kill themselves, heck they even smile during the day too.

Kind of like a spouse? I don't know. I've never been married.

“People replace the real God with other gods like the god of money.”

My thoughts exactly. I can’t imagine killing yourself over money (not that you should kill yourself for anything, but killing yourself over money just shows how messed up priorities are in life).
