　　But then I got into stuff¹ that I didn't love, like management. 但不喜欢的事慢慢接踵而来，像管理。

　　I am the world's worst manager, but I figured I should be doing it, because I was, after all, the president of the company. 我是世界上最糟糕的管理者，但当时我觉得这就是我该做的，因为我毕竟是公司的老板。

　　Well, soon a black cloud formed over my head and here I was, outwardly very successful, but inwardly very depressed². 很快地，乌云罩顶，我外表看上去成功，但内心非常消沉。

　　But I'm a guy; I knew how to fix it. I bought a fast car. 但身为一个男人，我知道该怎么解决。我买了台跑车。

　　It didn't help. I was faster but just as depressed. 但那没有解决问题。我拥有了速度但仍然消沉。

　　So I went to my doctor. I said, "Doc, I can buy anything I want. But I'm not happy. I'm depressed. 于是我去看医生，我说：“医生，这世界上没有什么是我要而买不到的，但我很不快乐。

　　It's true what they say, and I didn't believe it until it happened to me. But money can't buy happiness." 人们说的都是真的，我以前不相信，直到亲身经历，金钱是买不到快乐的。”

　　He said, "No. But it can buy Prozac." 他回答：“但可以买到百忧解。”

　　And he put me on anti-depressants. 于是他让我吃抗忧郁药。
