In the end... they're still rich...and you're still not
Not being rich is ok with me. Take Jack Welch for example... a very rich man who is miserable now that he's left the helm of GE. He tries to fill his life with what is meaningful but the only thing Neutron Jack wants is to be back at GE (or some other power position). Jack Wants Power... and he has none of what is important to him. I have 'enough' money. Certainly not rich by anyone's standard, but I'm not that interested in accumulating wealth. I do get to ski when ever the weather permits, until this year I used to rollerblade in my spare time. I spend a lot of time on the lake in the summer and on the lake in sleds in the winter... Unlike Poor Jack... I have most of what I want. I'm basically a happy guy while Jack, with all his money, is miserable and, there is no hope in sight. |
