People want to acquire money because they think it will give them happiness. Other people, rich people mostly, says that is not the case. Yet people still invest time and energy into building up capital. Why? Are people deluded?

Poor people tell themselves that to feel better and rich people say it to feel less guilty

Sounds reasonable, but it also comes with a price if you don't win the lottery. Is it really worth it when you account for the time and energy invested? Look at Elon Musk, widely successful and rich, but works like 100 hours a week and needs to take prescriptions to fall asleep.

it's merely perspective, nobody really gives a shit that they already have a lot more money than some even poorer fucks - from somebody elses point of view you are already rich, so why aren't you happy? same goes for the goys you consider to be rich

working excessively stresses people out, so they can't sleep properly

I don't have any money and still can't find happiness. I don't get how to have it. Getting money is the only way I haven't tried yet.
