Is wealth also negatively correlated with dementia? I feel like that would have the same affect (social status, etc).

- laurent92 5y agoWealth can also be correlated with fewer belief towards human importance and stronger belief towards hard work, which means poor sleep and poor love.
- agumonkey 5y agoi'm no sociologist but to an extent yeah. below a certain threshold your life goes to misery real fast.. above a certain amount you have other problems too (wealth can destroy your social life, or emotional balance, badly managed it may turn into overwhelming debt) just enough wealth gives you mental safety, allows for patience and errors thus grows, lets you live in positive contexts where your social network helps reinforcing your wealth even more. ps: I've experienced low level jobs and contemplated homelessness, you really don't want to live near these levels at all. It's a black hole of issues... you'd be surprised how fast your mind goes insane (I literally punched my car screaming "damn snobs" while late to deliver newspaper in the morning.. I wanted to restore some good old french tradition quite strongly if you know what I mean)
