Don't tax your health over making more money, as it's not bound to give you the desired happiness your heart is yearning for.
Material comforts are not a key to happiness. Individuals usually get richer during their lifetimes .. but not happier.
If a man working so hard (e.g 16 or 18 hrs out of 24 hrs) then he has no time left for personal relationships and leisure.
People don't experience wealth unless they compare it with others, and once they satisfy one set of their aspirations, the other emerges.
Work is key to only individual satisfaction. But to satisfy our well wishers need and to see them happy, sometimes one has to work hard against his will.
All members what are your views about it ?
Do you also feel same ?
Whether yes or no, PLz share with us.

You are quite right! The problem with people is, when they see others with more money/material wealth, they start wanting more too. If you keep looking at others with less or not much money then maybe you can feel satisfied.
I guess there is a limit. If you didn't have enough money to eat or have the basic comforts, you will probably feel unhappy, unless you are a really spiritual person.
