    Actually, rich people are NOT any less happy than those that are not as economically fortunate. This mind-set you have is what is often referred to as a ‘slave morality.’ According to Nietzsche (look it up), the ‘slave’ tries to tell himself that the happiness generated by the master morality among the ‘masters’ is not geniune. i.e. ‘He is rich, therefore he cannot possibly be happy.’ Think about that for a minute. For one, the wealthy man bears few of the financial strains that are problematic for someone who is not rich. Of course he is happy! Or at least he is not any less happy than anyone else! [Note: I do not subscribe to most of Nietzsche’s beliefs. This is one of the few thoughts with which I agree.]
