You work from 9 to 5 each day.

Now imagine that you don't have to continue this enervating cycle for the next two days.
What makes someone feel "rich enough" in different societies?
Adding to that the commute from home to work and back.
Tiring officework/college works, hectic schedules, exhilarating deadlines, stressful environment.
Frustrated at day to day stuff that suddenly stops working or day to day tasks that often come off as annoying.
