McAfee on possessions

We all know McAfee's virus software.  Evidently the man was quite rich, but lost almost all of it in the recession, according to an ABC news article.  On the way, he learned a Stoic-like attitude.  I especially like the quote at the end of the article:
"I think most people don't sit down and ask, 'What do I need?" not "What do I want?" Because we all want everything," he explained. "But what do we need? We don't need very much. We really don't ... The things we want and the things we need are two different things."
