"不,不富有。我是一个有钱的穷人,这是不一样的。"

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Simplified Meaning:

Having a lot of money doesn't automatically make someone truly rich in every sense; it just means they have money. Being rich usually means having a fulfilling life with good relationships, happiness, and contentment. For example, think of someone who has millions of dollars but no friends or family. They might feel lonely despite their wealth. In contrast, a person with modest means but who has strong bonds with their loved ones, and is happy in life, can genuinely feel rich. The advice here is to focus not just on making money but also on building meaningful connections and finding joy in everyday life. Simply put, money alone doesn’t buy true wealth or happiness.
