      I’ve experienced great joy when able to spend time and money on others- but to be honest – these were only “my” kids. I overspent on them as it turned out and this caused problems 😂

      Still, those are some of my happiest moments of my life, thus far. And I’ve enjoyed since then volunteering when I had no money and those I helped had even less.  I learned that one has to have a certain amount of money to learn ( by mistake) what to do with it. And egoism will always have its way so that enough is never enough…

      Short answer: egoism (doing what it does throughout the social network)

      I don’t find it so hard to believe that this pro-social spending would make me a bit more happy. It is hard though, to imagine that it would make me much happier.

      Our “will to receive” remains intact and continues to be our primary point of operation socially.

      Because our ego and self interest (the will to receive) that are extremely potencialized by the media and consumerism.
