Money doesn't buy happiness. But it sure as hell dulls the sadness.
Okay in all seriousness: Yes, having lots of money doesn't make you automatically happy. In fact you can become addicted to spending it to the point you are broke again before you know, people may take advantage of you etc. Heck, Robin Williams had tons of money thanks to his movies and a high reputation and how did that end? But, Dobson's post as explained here is just dumb. It is the sort of condescending statement he makes, that also kind of becomes offensive towards people who don't have money. On one hand he seems to make fun of that Notch guy (frankly, I don't know who that is) for having now that money and I wonder, why? I don't know how he earnt it, but if he earnt it by dumb luck and work, he still put more effort in making it than Dobson puts in his career. Second, if he is also making fun of people who don't have much money, perhaps he should spend a month in a homeless shelter without twitter. Lets see him earn his money as a street artist.
