Poor and Happy. My brother lived in a small apartment, worked as a spa installer and at UPS, had a wife and child, but lived a very happy life. He knew how to make do with the little money his family had and still was able to do things he enjoyed, which were with friends and family. When he passed away, I was amazed by how many people showed up at the funeral and shared stories about what kind of person my brother was. He really touched a lot of peoples' lives and had a lot of good people who truly missed him. It really stuck the concept of friends and family as being the key to living a rich life, into my head.
