I've often thought the same way. Until I started thinking about the fact that those who "have everything", or at least we think they have, aren't happier than us, who have to work for a living. Not a bit happier.

I'd rather think that life presents us with those challenges for a good reason. There is nothing like achieving what we want through ingenuity, instead of being rewarded for nothing.
