That was a sad, sick joke, E! And very appropriate.

I really didn't understand the relationship with financial pressures and poverty, though. The notation at the bottom of the article indicates he has some sort of job. Of course, if most of your friends are rich, that in itself can be depressing! I totally agree that the garden variety of depression most of us have had briefly can be helped by more money, more money, because money equals fun, and a brightly flowering garden, and new CDs, live concerts, books, vacations, and the other things that can help you get on a more positive track. To me, the depression that wraps itself around you and settles in like this author is describing puts you beyond appreciating the small pleasures of the things money can buy.
