Re: The problems some people have..

Double-edged sword isn't it?

Great wealth brings relief from financial worry ..
But it depends on the person and what they do with their wealth.
Bill Gates seems to have found a happy balance and yet for others it seems to bring an apathy, a jaded outlook on life because everything is 'too easy' .. and life becomes a limbo with no ambition or fulfilment.

Re: The problems some people have..

I wouldn't thank you.
..The worry of your house being broken into or family robbed,
..nothing to which you can look forward because you know you can have what you want at any time.

I don't envy the rich, I am poor but content

The first time I clicked on the link, a graph came up

Maths remains anathema to me but just so long I have enough to get through, that's fine.

A roof over my head (albeit leaking), food in the house, my bus pass and a few friends is good

It would be good to be so wealthy think of all the brilliant things - i mean good things that one could do.
The best thing would be to be the ability to give it away and make others happy .

Would you choose the people carefully and somehow get the money to them without them knowing the source ?

That really appeals to me
