I want to become a rich man, when she/he became a rich he/she want more than that. If I have that and get that position and money, I'm contented already Why? Is there any satisfaction and contentment man have? When you can say man is satisfied in his/her life? And when you can say man is contented in his/her life? I know we have a lot of opinion about this topic, share with us and we see ourself if we are contented or satisfied.

Contentment is better than satisfaction, contentment means you can rest on a thought rather than getting satisfaction from something that doesn't last long. Satisfaction is short lived, contentment is much longer and easier.

I mostly try to be as content as I can because things could be worse.

I think I would rather be contented with the things that I have. Although satisfaction may play a role in what are the things that you want, but it is important that we learn to limit ourselves and not put too much value on material things.

Yes i agree with you but do you think being contented can be real in life or always looking to satisfied our wants...
