Most billionaires still work I think.
I personally believe that true contentment in life is if you can do something meaningful to help others. The human connection is such a basic thing in life. We want love, not just sex.
You might think that getting lots of money would make other people like you more but I think that is the opposite. Billionaires really aren't that "likable" are they?
- samuria 3y agoThey are very much liked by people who are interested in their wealth. Which I think is the wrong reason to "like" someone for.
- galaxyLogic 3y agoRight but I think they know it themselves, so they cannot be sure whether people really like them for other things besides money. The point I was trying to make was that people want to get rich really because they want to be truly liked and appreciated by others. Whether we suck up to a billionaire or try to perhaps con them somehow WE know that we don't "like" them very much. But really I don't know any billionaires, I've only seen them on TV, so I may be wrong.
- WalterBright 3y ago> Billionaires really aren't that "likable" are they? I'm sure that billionaires are constantly approached by people wanting to be their new best friend. That would make any billionaire rather standoffish and close with any friendship reciprocation.
