Russell Simmons says money doesn’t buy happiness
April 24th, 2008 by Glynette Cougarsmith
Music impresario Russell Simmons told the New York Post in a recent interview, “If I know 15 billionaires, then I know 13 unhappy people. These people’s lives might be filled with mansions and yachts and private jets, but their medicine cabinets are also filled with anti depressants.” According to an anonymous psychologist who has many wealthy clients in New York, Simmons’ statement is misleading. “First of all, Russell won’t know 15 billionaires by the time that interview comes out, because now that they know he’s been rifling through their medicine cabinets, the friendships are over. Second, if I know 15 poor people, then I know 13 unhappy people, and all they have in their cabinets is Schlitz — at least Prozac doesn’t make you fat and clumsy.”
