Couple days late, but..Plato thought that goodness, in a sense, was a requirement for happiness...therefore if rich mean cannot be good men..then rich men cannot be happy.  Or maybe this is an early truism about the lives of unfulfilled patricians and the human wake they must have left behind them as they collected wealth.  More drachma, more problems.

Yeah, but dude: You can't be happy on the rack. Plato said you could be happy on the rack. He was wrong about that. I agree with Plato that virtue contributes to happiness, but I disagree with the notion that virtue=happiness. It doesn't.
