My sample was of 10M+ with an average in the 20s. only know 2 individuals worth 100M+ so I guess I'm not qualified to comment. Both of them are quite happy though.

Sweet, a pissing contest. I call BS in general though. There is no way you know that many people well enough to determine if they are actually happy or not. On average everyone probably knows around 20 people that they actually interact with enough on a regular basis to even guess if they are truly happy or not. Just because you've been in the same room or been introduced to someone at an event does not qualify you to determine if they are happy or not. Everyone tries to look happy when they are in public.

By happy I mean appear happy. Obviously I have no idea if they are just putting on an act and they go home and are miserable.

For example most of my neighbours are in the $10M+ category and they all seem very happy. They have people over, they are always cheerful in the elevator, I run into them in social settings and they seem to be having a good time. If they were unhappy they'd be more removed.
