In 1916 the world teetered on the brink of communist revolution and fascism and the rich of that time were always worried about having it all taken away from them in not so pleasant ways. I've never been rich and never particularly wanted to be. I like relative anonymity. Being a billionaire, especially in 1916 there was no such thing as anonymity. 

Sooooo... nothing's changed in a century?




And I'd take 1916 billionaire. Money = stress. As money increases, stress decreases. Some will argue with this, that having a giant chunk in your bank account creates a different kind of stress. Those people generally haven't faced the decision of whether to buy: a- their kids shoes; b- the whole family food; or c- pay off some debt. When the biggest chunk of your check goes to basic existence, that creates strength.
