Another comment about having a lot of money.

I’ve noticed that the more I have, the more I can deal with people as objects rather than as subjects (to use Nikolai Berdyaev‘s terms). That is, my relations with people are more likely to be economic transactions rather than efforts of love.

The danger here, of course, is that I will fall into a routine of economic transactions and end up with no love. These sorts of relationships are easy (they only require that some form of payment be exchanged), but they are unfullfilling.
