Nick, are you this miserable / condescending in your daily life and with clients? Or just when you preach to strangers on public forums? I ignored your last response, because you don't seem to be a happy person, despite all of the adversity you've overcome in your life. There are many happy people in this world less fortunate than yourself, I hope you find some peace.

Please don't cross into personal attack, regardless of how bad you consider another comment.

The discussion started when you projected your own thoughts and biases into the faces of people in developing countries that you don't really know, and assumed they don't actually want the financial advantages you enjoy.

Now you've projected similarly onto me, who you also don't know, and decided I'm not a happy person.

In both cases, of course, you actually have no idea how happy the people you're interacting with are, or are not.

When you come to realize that you'll perhaps have gained a little bit of humility and empathy. Those will serve you well in discussions such as these.

Please don't cross into personal attack either. That's not why we're here.
