Thank you for opening my eyes to Alain de Botton.
There's a great documentary series that was made based on this book https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1MqJPHxy6g
Anyone interested in the relationship between social status/social stratification and emotional wellbeing should read "The Spirit Level" by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett. One of the most important books of the 21st century imo.
