I think I made it clear that I thought the situation was more complicated than either position makes it out to be. Having the means to be comfortable and secure matters a lot. After that, though, we have diminishing returns.
It's somewhat realistic. Robin Williams and Anthony Bourdain come to mind. It's also kinda shown with the number of people that come into money then fall out of it.
Kinda inverse to me. I think there's a level of financial comfortability that reduces stress and anxiety. Money doesn't buy happiness, but poor buys some very negative emotional responses.
CFLs were kinda shit tho. I'm so happy LED became standard.
