"It is wrong to assume that men of immense wealth are always happy"
- John D. Rockefeller
About this Quote
John D. Rockefeller's quote suggests that having enormous wealth does not necessarily relate to happiness. This implies that cash does not bring true pleasure and satisfaction. It is wrong to presume that people with a great deal of money are always delighted since cash does not ensure a life of satisfaction and satisfaction. Cash can provide comfort and security, however it can not purchase real happiness. People with a great deal of money may have the ways to buy material possessions, but they may still do not have the psychological and spiritual fulfillment that comes from meaningful relationships and experiences. Cash can offer a complacency, but it can not replace the happiness that comes from meaningful connections with others. Therefore, it is wrong to presume that people with tremendous wealth are constantly delighted.
