MONEY/SUCCESS DOESN'T EQUAL TO HAPPINESS

Consider what had happened to these men .
The president of the largest independent steel company, Charles Schwab, died in bankruptcy and lived on borrowed money for five years before his death.
The president of the greatest utility company, Samuel Insull, died a fugitive from justice and broke in a foreign land.
The president of the New York Stock Exchange, Richard Whitney, spent time in Sing Sing Penitentiary.
A member of the President's cabinet, Albert Fall, was pardoned so he could die at home.
The greatest "bear" on Wall Street, Jesse Livermore, died a suicide.
The head of the greatest monopoly, Ivan Krueger, died a suicide.
The president of the Bank of International Settlements, Leon Fraser, died a suicide.
All these had learned well, the art of success in making a living, but apparently THEY DIDN'T LEARN THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIVE WHICH IS BEING SATISFIED, LIVING A SIMPLE HAPPY LIFE--AND WORSHIPPING GOD.
