it does indeed suck to be poor. i wouldnt have to be fantastically rich, but i could do very well with being wealthy, just from a 'peace of mind' point of view - with less worries in the financial area i can concentrate on worrying about other aspects of my life.

yeah, i agree with wobbly, been too rich you'll become prisoner to other conditions. The key is to be "just nice" rich.
I dun dream of becoming rich... I only dream of driving & owing Ferrari 360 Modena Challenge Stradale, Ferrari F430 Spider, Lamborghini Murcielargo roadster, Pagani Zonda F, Konigsegg CCR, Ford GT, Porsche 911 Turbo, BMW M6, AMG Mercedes Benz SL65, Bentley Continental GT coupe, Honda NSX...

Dream of getting rich is ok. Obsession over getting rich is a nono.

Unfortunately, hardcore moronic punters are so addicted that they failed to see the odds stacked against them. :bsmilie:
Once a blue moon, play small, I guess its ok.
Following that logic of 'buy more, win more' is a cocktail of a downward spiral worse den the Buy-Buy-Buy Virus.

I want to reach that point in life when I go to, say a CD shop, see some limited-release CD-set going for $49.90, I don't need to think and think and think and think and think and think and think and think and think and think and think
and in the end, never buy.
Then later, think and think and think and think and think summore. And when I decided to buy, no stock, liao.
I have no dreams of buying big-big things like Ferrari and condo. I just want to be able to afford ALL the small things in life.
and in the end, never buy.

All I want is a couple of millions that I can donate them to charities.

People behave differently and usually this behaviour is according
to the environment they are brought up with. You notice some
people are born rich and don't even have to work for the rest of
their lives.
Unfortunately God also wants some people to be born
poor. It is difficult to understand this but once you know the
reason for living you would go out to lend a hand to others whether
you are rich or poor.
The zen of living is not to destroy or deceive in order to get rich but
to give and share whatever you have to those who are in need.
If only the rich people can act accordingly to help the poor, the
world will have more peace and harmony.
It is the drive of selfish
desire to be rich and powerful that caused people to fall into all
sorts of crime and destruction. You will sense the richness of
your life whenever you have done others a good deed without
asking for return of the favour.
Finding contentment in the higherawareness of oneself
"When the sun rises, I go to work. When the sun goes down,
I take my rest. I dig the well from which I drink. I farm the soil
which yields my food. I share creation. Kings can do no more."
-- Chinese proverb
Do you sense the peace and contentment that can come from an appreciation of ones place in the cosmos?
How do we get there with the complexities and pressures of our
current lifestyles? Perhaps its a matter of becoming aware of what
we truly have as opposed to what our egos believe we need. If we
look closely, we may find that our ego needs are just desires.
-------------------------------------------------
If only teachers of all nations can deliver this message:
When you find yourself longing for something, stop and ask,
"What is missing from my life? Is it a need? What are the
essential qualities of what I seek? How can I experience that now?"
"If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no
more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot."
