If money could guarantee someone peace of mind, then the man in person would've spent half of what he's acquired to find peace but what we was going through was beyond his wealth, and he's a prove that one can have all the billions and still not get peace or happiness. I might be wrong though but what's your opinion?
You are right but it is better to be rich than to be poor. The reason is that you can also read many news about people that are not rich but killed themselves so are the news of rich people doing so sometimes. I think the poor killed themselves than the rich people because the poor are more than the rich. Money may give people some ways to happiness but there are some things like sickness or bad health and other things that can make it not happen. But the poor can suffer those also.
Exactly its better to be rich than struggling financially since we know how heavy the feeling if we can't provide something. Also there are people who only base their respect depends of financial gains of the people. That's why although money doesn't guarantee happiness but for sure you could able to enjoy all things that you want in this world.
That's why instead of not valuing money because of that mindset they should strive to earn more so that they could able to provide a comfortable life not only for theirselves but also for their family. There are poor people saying that maybe just to comfort their self and ease away their worries regarding on their daily struggles.
