Just now, Elon Musk, the world's richest man, posted a tweet on social platform This sentence is translated as:“Whoever said ‘money can’t buy happiness’ is so right!”
You must know that Musk's personal wealth has just exceeded a record high, exceeding US$850 billion. He is the first individual in human history to reach this level of wealth.
As a result, he is US$578 billion ahead of the world's second richest person (Google co-founder Larry Page, US$281 billion), and has exceeded the combined assets of the second to fifth richest people in the world.
Against this background, Musk suddenly lamented that "money can't buy happiness", which made people feel inexplicably dramatic.
This is not the first time Musk has talked about happiness. He has shared his views many times in the past and even gave a formula for happiness, which is"Happiness = reality-expectation".
He also called the two elements of happiness: "If you have the happiness of love and love your job, you will be completely happy; if you only have one of them, you can only get half of the happiness."
In an interview last December, Musk also shared his insights:“Don’t chase money directly, become a net value creator. Create useful products and services and the money will come. This is the key to happiness.”.
However, netizens obviously could not empathize with Musk’s sentiments, and many people left ridiculing comments:
Give me $10 million first and let me test this theory for myself; when I have $850 billion, I will tell you how I feel;I suggest you give me $1 billion so we can both be happier.
