Russell Simmons is rich and depressed

According to Russell Simmons--the billionaire co-founder of Def Jam Records--money doesn't buy happiness (that's what all the rich people say to keep us poors at bay). Simmons wrote in his just-released memoir Do You:

"If I know 15 billionaires, then I know 13 unhappy people. These people's lives might be filled with mansions and yachts and private jets, but their medicine cabinets are also filled with antidepressants." (Source)

So you can tell how rich someone is just by looking in their medicine cabinet? Interesting ... I guess the empty bottle of designer cologne, anti-itch cream, and fungal lotion puts me firmly into the "one hundredaire" category (don't let the expensive cologne throw you off-that's where I hide my food stamps). On a completely unrelated note that really has nothing to do with the story but I wanted to tell you anyways because I think you and I have that type of relationship now, my last girlfriend/hooker/cleaning lady's suggestion that bleach would clear up anal warts was not entirely accurate ... although I do look a lot better in some of my more recent drunken homemade porn movies "art films"

I really feel sorry for him. He can't think of anything else to write about than how fucking miserable he is with ALL THAT MONEY!

Teach him how to shoot a shotgun with his toe. That will end his misery.

He's got all that dosh, lovely house and family. He should appreciate what he has and stop bleating on about money not buying happiness.
