Driver 1 drives the Corolla. He paid it off already, has a 2 bedroom house paid for, makes 300K per year and has no debt/credit to pay, saves handsome amount and sleeps happily.
Driver 2 drives the Merc Benz. He has 3 Years left to pay it off, has a 4 bedroom house with hundreds of thousands left to pay, makes 200K per anum and has poor credit, lot of debt to pay, sleeps with a lot of stress each night.
Sadly many people would choose to be driver 2 because of what it looks like in spite of the reality that driver 1 is more wealthy. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is a good example of driver 1. Your circumstances will never change until the way you think changes.
it is a myth that Driver 1 sleeps happily. Driver 2 is then unfit to be driving the Merc if eh frets so much . Infact Driver 2 will have better credit history bec he has borrowed and as long as he is no defaulter.People believe if we keep a fat bank balance our credit goes up.I learnt from a banker friend that they are seen as non risk person.On the other hand someone who borrows,invests ,takes risks but is not a defaulter is seen as credit and risk worthy!!
As long as it is a choice I dont see a moral in it. It is like racing-you can drive at mad speeds because you know the pleasure and also the danger-and one chooses .

How this happens? A child was born in poverty. No food. No shelter. He determined to be big man. As he lived near the sea shore, he saw the ships coming and going in the ocean. And always dreamt to own one. When he grew up, he started working in the ship. Then he was able to own one ship. By the age of 45, he was owning a company having about 95 ships- owned or hired. But the mental stress was excessive. He could not have a wink of sleep. Phetysic was deteriorating.Totally broken with frustration of owing and operating such a huge fleet of ships, this chap went to a known Swamiji. Swamiji was having over 1000 maths throughout world yet smiling. This thought made him to visit Swamiji. He took out the keys of his office from his pocket and tendered it to Swamiiji saying: Swamiji, I cannot run this company. It is a huge burden on me. Swamiji smiled. He placed the keys at Swamiji's feet,.Now, while he was coming back to his home, he was feeling quite light mentally.For about 2 weeks, he enjoyed the life of his choice. Then a disciple came. Handed over the keys to this owner of company saying: Swami says "you are appointed as Managing Director of the company. Company belongs to the math." The man was very happy. He worked for Swamiji's math's company (which was actually his own company) and enjoyed the life of his choice as well.Moral of the story: It is not wealth that causes problems in life. It is the unreasonable attachment with wealth that creates. Once mentally detached, all joys of life can be enjoyed.Money is a matter of function fourA medium, a measure, a standard, a store.Please share the 5th one if known to the erudite professors.With regard,Prof P.K.Keshap--2017-06-30 21:38 GMT+05:30 manage <registrar9@gmail.com>:it is a balance of individual though process between misunderstand of passion and contentment.Driver 2 creats high networth business in compare with driver 1Driver 1 creats high volume--On Fri, Jun 30, 2017 at 1:09 PM, Prof. Bholanath Dutta <bnath.dutta@gmail.com> wrote:--Driver 1 drives the Corolla.
