This is an incredibly chill world if you can somehow break into it. You're not just running a business, you're a community leader, to whose ideas and judgement lots of people defer. Shit is cheap so you can have a country estate, lake house, basically wherever we want. And the population distribution in the South is such that there are small or mid sized cities spread out pretty regularly. So you can probably be within 1-2 hours of some city life while running your rural demesne.

But perhaps the best part is the tiny presence of the UMC or anyone other than your fellow chill oligarchs who might try to one up you. The doctors, lawyers, plant managers and other educated professionals frequently live on the edge of the nearest city and reverse commute out into the country.

All in all, it's an incredible life, if you can appreciate it. The standard patriarch of a manufacturing business with a $2 million EBITDA 1.5 hours outside of Birmingham is probably happier than the average centimillionaire in New York.

the only thing that seems questionable about that claim is how wildly understated it is. i would be willing to bet the modal nyc centimillionaire enjoys below-median happiness.

I heard a speech at a conference several years ago from one of those guys. It was really sad, even disturbing. The whole speech was about how great he was. He was desperate for validation.

Anyone who actually believes this has never lived in a small Southern town. Any cheap Southern town is full of dindus and methheads with nothing to do. And the public schools (which are the only schools that exist) are extreme thunderdomes. I have known some wealthy families in these types of towns, and in each case, their kids ended up working some McJob while spending all of Mommy and Daddy's money on drugs. When all your friends are dropping out of high school and getting high, you want to do the same thing.

To be clear, there are some nice Southern towns (usually in suburbs/exurbs or in tourist areas). But those towns are not cheap, and you will not be the only wealthy person in town. I think I remember reading an article saying that Cashiers, NC has one of the highest number of people with nine figure net worth per capita in the country or something like that. If you live in a town where you are one of the few wealthy people, it's probably because the town you live in is SPS, so nobody with money wants to live there.
