As my dad says (I don't know if it's from him or somebody else but who cares): It's better to have rich issues than poors issues.

I remember a Burt Reynolds interview (with Ruby Wax I think) when he said something like "I've been poor and miserable, and I've been rich and miserable - I'll take being rich and miserable any time". Nothing exactly earth shattering there, it just stuck in my mind for some reason.
Or put it another way, money doesn't buy happiness but it lets you be miserable in comfort.
