Summary

This quote indicates that although money is often desired and envied by many, it does not necessarily result in true enjoyment or happiness. On the other hand, good health, which is often taken for granted, is the source of greater enjoyment and contentment, yet it is not always the subject of envy. The quote suggests that societal focus on material wealth and status overlooks the importance of health and well-being, which ultimately brings more fulfillment and satisfaction in life.
