Is it true that the more successful you are the less envy you are more likely to experience?
Not necessarily. Envy is a basic human emotion that often manifests itself when a person sees something that they don't have that someone else may have. People can envy people with more money than they have or who have been more successful, however envy is not necessarily only limited to those factors. People can envy other people's relationships, the fact that they have children, the fact that they maybe happier, the fact they may have richer parents that provide for them or that other people achieved something in the past that they didn't and feel they may have missed out on. However successful the envious person becomes, no future success can compensate them or completely take that envy away for those types of issues. Money can buy you a lot of things, but it can't buy true happiness, inner tranquility or spiritual well being. There will always be people that have more of something else than you have, and the more successful you are, you may just move up the envy ladder and envy different things.
