00:10asked whether they were satisfied with the amount of money that they had and a

00:13very wonderful thing emerged. Those who had $200 in their account they said we

00:19would have been satisfied had we had $2,000. Those who had $500 they said no

00:25we are not yet satisfied we wanted $5,000. One of the billionaires who was dying
