Then maybe those rich people were never poor? I remember having to overturn couch cushions looking for change, so I could buy groceries for my wife & babyboy (& cooking them dinner with whatever I could cobble together). Goddamn, I love having money. And I worked hard for it.
Some preachy insight that's true: I've never met a super rich person who'd isn't pumped they're rich...but most every rich person I know says the money didn't make them nearly as happy as they thought.

Being poor sucks worse than being rich feels good.

For sure. At least it does when you have a family.

There's some survival bias there. If there weren't pumped to be rich, they could give away their money and embrace a non-super-rich lifestyle and wouldn't be caught in your sample :)

I’ve met one guy who was legitimately depressed by his wealth. Deeply contemplated giving it all up to run a comic book store in the Midwest... Surprise: he didn’t.

it’s.l a bigger surprise that he didn’t use his money to just run the store at
loss but 
gain
