The Drawbacks of Getting Rich

Good points. I have one close friend who "made it" in the last few years, and he seems more stressed than ever. And that's because he moved his goalpost to 8 figures after spending more time with rich people.

There's a great quote in Psychology of Money about it:

> "At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch-22 over its whole history.

Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he will never have … enough.”
