>>19226774the secret is to get that no matter where you start, you are not happy without some mental breakthrough
there are billionaire drunks allover wallowing in misery, comparing themselves to their own imaginery "better" groups (accomplished actors, brilliant inventors, happy middle class families) complaining to themselves that their silver spoon spoiled them to the real life
you can have a happy little family
or you can whore around on disco every night
you cannot have both
and both are wondering/seething about the other probably being better
because when you make those scenarios in your head, you know pros and cons of your situation, but only pros of the situation you are comparing yourself to
tl;dr - envy is a shackle, you are better once you realise that you don't need it
