  was bathing juz now when this thout came across my mind...
  
  pple in 3rd world countries waits for our donation in order to survive...their prob is simple which can be solve in terms of $
  
  pple like us, although we get to enjoy all the comforts in life but hey come to think of it..we r always stressed up, caught in a rat race for almost all our life (education n work)
  
  so which is worst? if given a choice, wld u rather be someone in a 3rd world country (in terms of physical suffering)...or forever get caught in a rat race like us? (emotional suffering)
  
  lets vote!

  neither.
  
  everyone has a different aspect of what he or she wants and needs, depending on the social norms and pressures.

  no matter how bad the rat race is i dun think anyone would ever choose to forego his current living and instead choose to live in a 3rd world country.
  
  at least here, u haf a choice to slow down - jus downgrade ur lifestyle accordingly. but if u r in a 3rd world country as u haf described, ppl there may not haf a choice - they may not be able to move up even if they wan to!
