would you rather be rich and depressed or poor and happy?
>>62738353Yes. Also ID dubs ch-ch-ch-chequed
>>62738353Rich and depressed, you can use your money to figure out why you're depressed. Poor and happy? You're likely going through bouts of depression anyway.
>>62738353To quote Samuel Hydestein: "happines is for women and children".
>>62738353Only the very young poor can be happy for a prolonged while. And only in poor countries at that. Permanent happiness is not something you can achieve if you have a brain.
>>62738353No one poor is happy
>>62738353poor and depressed
>>62738353Being rich is objectively better, whereas depression and happiness are merely electrical signals in the brain and aren't inherently real.
>>62738353you mean rich and smart or poor and stupid? what does it matter then?
>>62738353There are rich depressed people, but nobody that has been poor for 10+ years is happy. Not in the modern world, maybe such people existed in the past.
being poor FUCKING SUCKS. you literally cant address ANY problem you have, including depression.
Rich and depressed.You will have the money, and by extension time, to get yourself out of it.If you are poor and happy, if that happiness ends you won't be able to drag yourself back easily while being in poverty and waging.
>>62738353If I was rich I would have free time to explore what makes me happy
Ill take the middle road
>>62738353People are avoiding op’s point. Op is saying be a rich person with the personality type that oft kills themself even after attempting to address problems in their life as best they can, think robin Williams. And for the happy person, think African man just living it up in his village as a Mbuti
>>62738353rich and happy
