a few things :P

it cannot buy u wealth, happiness, sleep, true friends and most importantly, LOVE.
I am not rich, and yet I don't have happiness sleep true friends and love, I have friends akid you are 3a rasoun but no one I can really depend on and go out with. point is, having money or not does not alter your chances of having true friends and etc... but I would have rather cried in a ferrari as they say

second, being rich or poor is a relative thing, no one is rich or poor absolutely, you have to look at the society and at the time, 300 yeas ago, the wealthiest human was the one who had a couple of horses and a house and some land, now the less than average person in our community has a house and a car(which is better than a horse )and lights in his house so he can read at night, a computer and TV, which is far more than what a person 300 years ago would dream of

to a poor starving african, someone that has bread 3 times a day is rich, someone who eats once a day is moderate, and someone who eats once a week is poor to saad el hariri a millionnaire with one expensive car is probably moderate, we are probably dirt poor

imagine what would an average person have 50 years from now, maybe the red ferrari in 50 years will be worth 5000$

I think being rich simply means being better financialy than 90% of the people you know

edit: you probably could have more true friends if you were rich, distance would not be an issue, you could travel and afford to move around more to meet people, do some activities, register in clubs, you could eat out everyday
if you cannot afford going out on activities, you do not make much friends sitting home watching TV
