Let's clarify that. Normal people feel worse than 50 years ago. That's because more things do not mean more satisfaction. In fact, inequality will increase, movements will be lost, opportunities will be inadequate, so more things will be more dissatisfied. In these respects, having more material products creates fear and loss feeling. This is completely reasonable. More satisfied come from one place: more hidden possibility to achieve. But this is no longer the case today.

Americans have more than many other places in the world. In the 1950s, the average family was less than 1,000 square feet with 2 beds and 1 bathroom for 3 people. From today, 2,500 square feet, the cost of five people is 31 times. I do not know how we can have half of our staff, but obviously I think we need more space and "things". This is the focus and influence. This is an effective income source. I think Mike Allison recently told me the same thing. I could not hear my ears and my heart. Alison's approach is different, he says that we are working hard. And for us who are trying to transcend nature by immersing in work, this is not appropriate.

There is a Western cultural philosophy, America's dream life will bring happiness, bring more things, more safety, more money, will bring satisfaction. We earn money, collect things, pay more money, buy more and do more work; we will run a downward spiral circle leading to isolation and enlightenment. Going out with these elements, climbing mountains, floating in a river, or camping with a brush will force you to fall into danger. incorrect. But at home, every night at bed, in office, or at school or theater, or anywhere, the risk is arbitrary.
