Rich Monday Paper- Luxuries You Can’t Buy but Bring You Happiness
As we step into the 52nd edition of Rich Monday Paper, I invite you to explore a kind of wealth that doesn’t stop at numbers, transactions and material possessions- a wealth that cannot be bought, yet it is priceless. It is the wealth of joy, peace, confidence and friendship—the kind that enriches the soul and elevates the human experience.
This issue is inspired by the fabulous Christina Constantini, who graced the premiere of Sally at the Sundance Festival 2025 with a special guest. (Photo credit: Jo Savage). Her presence reminds us that true wealth is not just in the grand moments but in the company we keep, the energy we carry, and the impact we make.
