Hi Jennifer
You are so right.
I was involved in making a wealthy man a great deal of money in a short time.
I handed him a cheque for the profit $40,000 in 1970 when you could buy a house for $12 k
All he could say was...oh Alex this is such a lot of money , how can I invest it wisely...we did not celebrate in any way at all...to him it was a burden.
I learnt so much from that experience..he would always remain poor no matter how much money he had.

Well said Alex, some of the poorest people are also the happiest.
