Success + Money <> Happiness?

Kate Spade found dead in her apartment at 55, apparently hung herself.

I was just readin Yuval Harari's Homo Deux on the ride into work and he basically linked modern science's evolutionary biochemicalality with Epicurus and the Budha, basically success doesn't beget happiness.

Heard the name but don't know who she was. R.I.P.

Really sad. Her husband and teenage daughter must be devastated.

There are a lot of deeply-troubled people out there...in all shapes, sizes, and income levels.

Breeding

To much money only breeds unhappiness of the fitness of your Mental and Physical business mind.

Have complete and safe use of your money is at Stake.

Why don't the super-rich give their money away...so they could escape this "unhappiness of the mind'?

Wealth is like Early Speed... People do not self-destruct because they have too much of something.

They self-destruct because they have too little of something else.

What we know of other people is only a small part of who they really are.
