Or you are happy, having very little and not loading yourself beyond measure, because happiness - you have inside, or you will not come to anything. This is not a determination of poverty. This is a definition of restraint. But we have invented a consumption society that is constantly looking for growth. When there is no growth, it is a tragedy. We thought up a mountain of excessive needs. You must constantly buy, send. These are our lives that we are breaking. Whenever I buy something or when you buy it, we do not pay money. We are paying, in the meantime, our life, which we were forced to spend in order to earn this money. The only difference is that it is impossible to buy a life. Life goes by. And it's terrible.
José Mujica,
former President of Uruguay

Hello Vetal, thank you for introducing us to the inspiring words of Jose Mujica and for showing some pictures of him. It was his picture that made me look at your post. Regarding the theme of your post: Did you want to say "resident" or "president"? Jose is most likely to poorest president, but certainly not the poorest resident in the world. With warm regards
Thank you very much for your attentiveness. I have corrected. I'm glad that you liked the post.
