i've reached it, but i've lost a lot along the way. my gf of 5 years, gone. my brother, who was an enjoyable part of my business, also now gone (by the end of the month). and we are not friends anymore (due to the biz).
between 99 and 01 i was the happiest guy in the world - my world rocked. from there on in, i've made more and more money, and been less and less happy.

it's lonely at the top. And there's a reason for that.
Money changes you. Specially if you hang around people
that dont have the same _ambition_ you have.
And it's not the money that's the issue, it's the way
you think, the way you make decisions and deal with
things that change when you reach a 'higher level'.
Thinking big with people around you that have to think small
and having to work _hard_ with people around you
that, once again, cant fully imagine such an ambition
isnt a good thing for all kind of relationships in general.
