For a bit context, a common individual must work 28 1/2 hours at $25/hour to make what Elon makes passively in one second. (And as a notice, $25 is excess of minimal wage in many of the United States.)
However even with all that cash, it looks like issues could not all be copacetic in Elon’s world proper now.
To be honest, he is in all probability had a tough couple of years. He had a pal breakup (after which bought again collectively) with a particular pal.
However nonetheless, over on X, Elon wanted the world to know that he isn’t having a good time proper now. “Whoever mentioned ‘cash cannot purchase happiness’ actually knew what they have been speaking about,” he posted this week.
Actual fast, simply questioning if the one who first mentioned that outdated adage might’ve even conceptualized $800 billion…
Unsurprisingly, individuals went HARD within the replies. “We do not really feel dangerous for you. Not certainly one of us,” one individual mentioned.
“Does anybody promote subatomic sized violins?”
“Whoever mentioned ‘Cash can’t purchase happiness’ couldn’t afford a platform and a yacht to cry on. So boo-hoo.”
“Cash cannot purchase happiness, however I am gonna hoard all of it anyway! The world’s richest sufferer.”
“If I had one tenth of your cash I might spend each day all day serving to individuals and I might be the happiest individual on earth.”
Even fellow billionaire Mark Cuban weighed in. “In case you have been comfortable once you have been poor, you’ll be insanely comfortable in case you get wealthy. In case you have been depressing, you’ll keep depressing, simply with quite a bit much less monetary stress.”
And eventually, this individual summed up people’ frustration fairly properly. “Cash can enhance others lives, alleviate poverty, guarantee individuals are fed and the results of that could be a feeling of doing good on the planet and seeing individuals thrive, which should in flip make the individual facilitating that really feel happier general.”
So now I might like to know: Might $800 billion purchase you happiness? I feel I might make do with quite a bit much less, personally. Tell us within the feedback.
