It's like being rich, people think having money means all your worries are over. Then they get a little money and they spend all their time obsessing over it, and they start playing the markets, and they lose a lot, and they are even more miserable, because then they think they are losers. Meanwhile they have lost all their friends by being snotty to them about money.
