Death is a plausible answer to problems. Looking at a normal person who spent their life working their butt off to be divorced and disgraced until their death is not happy. Conversely, looking at a movie's star lavish career may give you second thoughts.

In the end, if some one told me that my life would be worthless, I would not do anything worthwhile and I would do nothing to help my fellow man then I pray I would have the fortitude and courage to blow my brains out. However, we cannot predict the future, therefore we must rough it out and try to make ourselves better in the process.
