Can Money Change Who You Are?

Mark Cuban says money cannot change who you are. If you are miserable when you are poor, there is a good chance you are going to be miserable when you are rich. Money cannot change your approach to life. Money cannot change how you feel about yourself. It really will not.

Steven Bartlett asked what acquiring lots of money had taught Mark Cuban about happiness and what life is really about. Mark Cuban says it is nice. He likes being rich a whole lot more than he likes being broke. He takes pride in the fact that he still has the same friends. His high school buddies are still his high school buddies. He is still close to his brothers. He is still close to his rugby teammates. He is still close to the same people that always have meant something to him. The same people are his friends.
