So I recently found out that my close friend is actually a millionaire who got rich trading stock options. He started with a $10k loan and compounded it in less than 1 year with some extremely good option trades.
I want to feel happy for him but deep inside I feel extremely envious as fuck.
Does /biz/ know people in their lives who are more rich and successful than they are? What's preventing you from killing yourself out of shame for not making it?
I'm not really envious of money, but I am envious of people that are actually happy in life. I'm not starving and have a girlfriend and a job and dogs and cats and everything...but all of it just seems dull and unproductive/uneventful. Days just blend together and they are all shit.

my brother in law has a 7 figure networth.
he doesnt like me very much
A friend of mine sold his company for 24m then put it all into housing at the bottom a few years ago.
I have no idea what he's worth now but wouldn't be surprised if it's 100m.
I'm happy for him, while I was drinking he was at work, while I was getting laid he was at work. He did 14 hour days 6 days a week for 5 years building his business and earned every cent.
