So, yeah. There
are reasons to feel depressed. I'm worried about my older relatives
and I'm mildly upset to see my club overrun with kids out of school
and our building is vacant and not producing any income and bonds
are getting called because interest rates continue to plunge. My sister
has a broken leg which is the last thing she needs.
On the other hand,
did you know that there are only seven million millionaires worldwide?
That doesn't sound like many really, out of a few billion people.
And a single million of net worth is chump change. I'm better off,
really, than virtually the entire rest of the world. Some people are
richer but they don't have my capacity for enjoyment. I really believe
that. And while I'm worried about the health and well-being of this
relative and that...my own health sees remarkable and has improved
since I retired and have been able to exercise with great regularity.
