To make a man gezegde

en To make a man perfectly happy tell him he works too hard, that he spends too much money, that he is ''misunderstood'' or that he is ''different''; none of this is necessarily complimentary, but it will flatter him infinitely more that merely telling him that he is brilliant, or noble, or wise, or good.

less what he spends it on. When a man spends someone else's money
to buy something for himself, he is very careful about what he
buys, but doesn't care at all how much he spends. And when a man
spends someone else's money on someone else, he doesn't care how
much he spends or what he spends it on. And that's government
for you.

  Milton Friedman
