feel young.
why people with the most money are the most
unhappy, and people with nothing much are the
happiest.
Why do people long to be rich or powerful, and once
they are one of two things happen. (1) they are

overwhelmed and do not know what to do with
themselves. These are the mysteries of life still

higher in the Bermuda Triangle then anywhere
else.

unsolved mysteries in the world.
