    The Moral Letter to Lucilius are a collection of 124 letters which were written by Seneca the Younger at the end of his life, during his retirement, and written after he had worked for the Emperor Nero for fifteen years. (These Moral Letters are the same letters which Tim Ferriss promotes in the Tao of Seneca)

    These letters are art. Truly we are better men for having heard them.

    "He who Needs Riches Least, Enjoys Riches Most" ~ A quote needed for our current capitalist society. We seek riches for the chance of freedom and yet it is often those same riches which bind us to our miserable condition.

      You're right I think..The payoffs of economics is almost totally measured in profit in some cultures.. I think thats what deteriorated the Moral structure of the West, more than any "cultural marxism" people like refering to these days..
