The end of the article where David is the pauper despite making half a million a year hit home. Perspectives get so warped around wealth. I once worked with a guy making $500k/year despite relatively low skills and education because he was in the right place at the right time on Wall Street. But he fell in with a social crowd of people with true wealth and his ego turned out to be a dark monster. The guy ended up spending half a decade in prison after stealing millions to try and keep up appearances with that crowd.
