Be honest. You looked at the guy in the fancy car, or the couple in the big home and thought, "I wish I had that." I do this all the time. But when I do, I rarely look at the people, I only look at the things. That's the lesson from the chapter "The Man In The Car Paradox." We always look at what money can buy, the cars, the watch, the phone, the house. Do we really want this? Housel suggests we really want two things through money, but which money can't buy, respect and humility.

If there's any way I can improve, let me know.
