I read how psychiatrist Karl Menninger once asked a very wealthy patient,
"What are you going to do with all your money?"
The patient replied, "Just worry about it, I guess."
"In that case," said the doctor, "do you experience much pleasure out of worrying about your money?"
"No, but I feel much terror when I think of giving any of it away."
Commenting on his patient's money-sickness, Dr. Menninger said, "Generous people are rarely mentally ill!"
