Happiness (IV)

"You see, I understand the relationship between happiness and sex, but why money?"
"There's not only sex in life"
"..."
"For the rest there is money"
"..."
"..."
"But imagine you were rich. Damned rich. What would you change of your life?"
"Not much, I suppose"
"Sounds like you're happy"






"You know the difference between money and sex for me?"
"Go ahead"
"I get money once per month"







"Money does not make you happy. When you are rich, you don't know you are. There's always someone next to you who is richer, and becomes your reference. The more you get, the more you want"
"Like sex"
"I am not so sure. At a certain moment you get saturated with sex. There is an asymptotic limit. You don't want more sex than that. There's no limit to money"
"No. With sex is like with food. When you are starving, you don't care too much on what you eat, is it some dry bread or some boiled potato. If you get food often enough, you go for more elaborated one, and your taste gets more demanding. At the end you want a good champagne, and once you had that, you want a better one. And you explore more combination and new recepies"
"I am hungry"
"So am I"
