I forget who it was who said that money is like sex: you only think about it when you're not getting enough of it, and if you are you find something more interesting to think about. I also forget whether this was supposed to be a commentary on money or a commentary on sex.
In any case, if you're getting enough of both you're probably pretty happy.

- GFischer 16y agoHeh... some pearls of wisdom from that article "If it flies, floats or fornicates, always rent it - it’s cheaper in the long run." And, far more relevant to this discussion: "Becoming rich does not guarantee happiness. In fact, it is almost certain to impose the opposite condition - if not from the stresses and strains of protecting it, then from the guilt that inevitably accompanies its arrival. "
- hugh3 16y agoAhh, thankyou. I remember reading this article a few years ago. I also remember the bits about flying, floating or fornicating. I didn't remember it had come from the same article though.
