I’d actually take issue with the majority swapping a few mil mid-life for the small wins (in their working lives) that most achieve, but that’s a wide philosophical ruckus and not for here
‘Hair shirts’! Don’t be so ridiculous. No one was suggesting that.

I was just sharing Swales’ sentiment that some of us are satisfied with what we have. I suspect neither he nor I live in anything approaching penury, but neither do we have a ‘holy grail’ of seeking ever greater wealth and luxury. Along perhaps with the notion that modern day footballers earn obscene amounts of money…that’s all that was being suggested.
