Rich people are miserable because they've never known what it is to struggle or suffer because of money. They don't know what it's like to just inch by, working 40+ hours a week, and still eating shit like microwave dinners in your apartment. Yeah, rich people are miserable, but give your regular average middle class person a rich person's wealth, and you'll see one content human being.

thats not true. every rich person must've fought somewhat to become rich, even if their daddy's already rich. My father had to start working when he was 12, carrying water to the wells in his village, and bit by bit he became wealthier until he has what he has now. and yet i still have to fight for my own wealth bcus he refuses to give me anything, not even one cent.

I've heard too many stories of average joes who win the lottery and end up destroying their lives because of it to buy that.
Also, there is no average middle class any more in this country.

If you ever sold merchandise you would realise that is a bad idea.
Trades is about long lasting not a quick sale and end of story, in most cases really.What you've described is a 100% perfect Joymax business module, except for what Joymax has done they've done it on a much greater basis.
Your idea of trade is a short term= Joymax , all merchants should realise that a good trade is good because of its long lasting goodness e.g Blizzars World of Warcraft also a MMO but better than SRO. Why? because Blizzard did their business as a long term business, Joymax did not hence why is such thing as lack of hired staff and the implementing of the Item Mall causing the players to believe the game is f2p whilst for serious players this game will cost more than a p2p game.
This is not , at least not purely because the product of SRO is inferior to WoW in anyway but only because of Joymax's business module, making a quick game fast money maker instead a steady well maintained game.
this is why i believe
Blizzard > Joymax (judge wholly on their manangement)

Well true for inherited wealth. Most rich people studied their ass off at school and worked non stop for their goal. At leasts thats what I believe anyways whether you agree or not.

My point is, the rich people who are miserable, probably didn't work for it.

There are people who inherit millions of dollars from their close relatives, and the people of whom they inherited the money off, give them anything they want. The fact it didnt happen to you doesnt mean it doesnt happen at all.
