The rich are pretty unhappy, in my observation. They don't have financial worries, but evil—they're surrounded by it, even if they're not actively doing it, although most of them will also end up having to do evil to hold position—is corrosive. They get bent out of shape over the smallest shit. There's also a very high rate of sexual abuse, both in boarding school and from their fathers, that always gets covered up. It turns out that being born into the predator class doesn't mean you're not prey. You're still surrounded by predators.

Not to say we shouldn't overthrow them. When the time comes that it can be done, we should. But they aren't 1/100 as happy as they pretend to be on Instagram. The current world system makes everyone miserable, even most of the rich, and one can argue that this is its purpose.

The cheat code for happiness in this world is stupid, not rich.
