[00:03.22]Unit 10 Money Lesson 1 A Material World

[00:10.55]"Who wants to be a Millionaire 1?I don't."

[00:13.29]says Charles Gray

[00:15.38]Angus Deayton interviews ex-millionaire

[00:18.32]Charles Gray

[00:20.50]A lot of people are determined 2

[00:22.23]to become a millionaire.

[00:24.52]They spend half their time dreaming up ways

[00:27.04]of getting rich,

[00:28.20]and the rest of their time thinking

[00:29.64]about all the enjoyable things they would do

[00:32.41]once they got rich.

[00:33.98]But do all millionaires 3 find the happiness

[00:36.78]that they thought they would get

[00:38.50]when they achieve their goals?

[00:40.56]Some millionaires continue

[00:42.12]to be concerned about money

[00:43.82]when they become millionaires.

[00:46.07]They are hardworking to get all that money.

[00:49.41]Then they are hardworking

[00:51.26]to make sure they never lose it!


[00:53.68]But there are people

[00:54.98]who have turned their backs

[00:56.55]on their millions and found different ways

[00:58.60]to be happy in their lives.

[01:00.75]Charles Gray is one example.


[01:03.47]Sixteen years ago,

[01:04.46]Charles was a college professor

[01:06.23]with a huge six-bedroom house and $2 million.

[01:10.78]Today he lives in a small dormitory 4 room

[01:13.52]where there is only second-hand 5 furniture.

[01:16.70]There are certainly no signs

[01:18.08]that Charles was a rich man!

[01:18.59]
