Quote by Mark Twain
A dollar picked up in the road is more satisfaction to us than the 99 which we had to work for, and the money won at Faro or in the stock market snuggles into our hearts in the same way.
Summary
This quote highlights the irrational satisfaction we get from finding easy money or making quick profits through gambling or speculative investments. It suggests that the value we place on such gains is disproportionately higher than the value we attach to the money we earn through hard work.
