I've been dirt poor and reasonably comfortable at different times in my life, and I know that holds true for me.
Its just a question of temperament and priorities. Some people need to play the lifestyle/money game, some people don't. Some people are happy giving away all their money, and going to live in a monastery. Neither one is necessarily better than the other. I know a few people who've done the latter, and society benefits from their experience just as it does from people who prefer doing the former.
I agree with Fatpad, you seem to be projecting your own personality and its needs onto everyone else. Most of your posts in this thread are some variation of: "if you don't want to have what I want to have, you can't be happy" To turn it around, it would be like quiet calling you are a moron because you don't love snowboarding. You don't have to think about it too long to see how utterly ridiculous that attitude is.

looks like someone has an obsession with trying to prove me wrong.... well, at least you have a hobby that makes you happy.
