The battle between Capitalism and happiness

I've been on top of the world. Well, not literally. But I have felt what I believe was euphoria. It's the simple things too that usually give me that feeling. 

Don't get me wrong, I would love to drive a 2015 Ferrari or Maserati while living it up with waves at my deck.
But I know that physical experience will never outweigh the spiritual. A moment of emotional bliss or spiritual connection is a way better feeling than any physical can bring. Energy proves that for me. We're all energy. As soon as we pass on, our energy leaves our bodies. I'm pretty sure that's proven. 

Another law is that energy cannot be destroyed it can only be transferred. That means that your energy does not die with your body it's only transferred. What it's transferred to is the question.
What I wish I knew how to do was prolong the feeling of that internal euphoria with all of those endorphin that come with it. Or would I rather experience the highs and lows instead?

I do know that you can have all the possessions in the world and still not feel complete. We've learned that from all of the people that have reached that level of success but still did not feel like they completed their mission. Giving most of their fortunes away was the only thing that gave them joy towards the end of their lives. That's the main reason I gave up on ascension of the corporate ladder a long time ago.

I do wonder what I could have accomplished. A former co-worker and an eventual boss Bryan gave me a glimpse of what the possibilities were. He's retired before 40 with over four million in income plus millions in stock. I didn't have the stomach for the back stabbing, lies, etc that it took to not necessarily excel but just survive. If you're not ahead of the game you're behind it. I knew my VP was getting fired a week before he did.

Current Corporate life is just short of mob mentality. Similar to the dictator of a country. When you're in a position of power life is great. But in weakness your kingdom can be shattered. One of the definitions of Capitalism is to take advantage. That's become our way of life and we're surprised people are ruthless?
