Dude was worth billions of dollars in 1999 driving a honda civic and sitting at a desk made out of an old wooden door and a bunch of 2x4's. Most people i know making 40k a year wouldnt stoop that low. Do some research into something called the hedonic treadmill and you'll realize that people just end up back at baseline regardless of how much money they have. The real moral of the story is to invest, be frugal as hell, dont hang out with losers who just want to go out and socalize and spend money all the time, and sacrifice the quality of your lifestyle to make money. The reason i don't feel bad for the poor is because they spend more money than i do. I know people who make 20k a year and spend more money a year than i do making 80k a year.

TLDR: My sacrifice is my lifestyle for my dollar.
Their sacrifice is their dollar for their lifestyle.
