Funny about the lattes. I am probably complicit in that criticism, but maybe because I'm usually happier spending my $100/month (depending on how many you buy) making my own tea/coffee and spending that same amount renting movies on itunes.

But to the real point, I think you- and Sethi- are onto something with it being more about figuring out what really makes you happy. If, it turns out, that what makes you happy are big houses and expensive cars or planes (I have an uncle who truly seems happy with all 14 airplanes he owns.. though he's an ex-commercial pilot who usually finds old planes he refurbishes and doesn't mind if they crash land in corn fields.. I witnessed that one) then I can't criticize that.

But I wonder if the majority of us really are happier with more and would be just as happy realizing that "enough is enough" and focusing on things that really make us happy.
