Modiano is a rich man, born into a rich family. Wealth doesn't help in front of a white page, but it sure helps being able to stay in front of that white page instead of having to go take up a job because you're not sure what you're eating tonight. As always, wealthy people and their "money doesn't make happiness" bullshit.

Money doesn't buy happiness, but it staves off abject sadness.
