I disagree with all of YOU! hahahaha. I believe and trust that there is a point in satisfaction. I believe that I am satisfied with being with my homies and my fam. No money or things can replace my homies and my fam. When I'm with my real homie then I feel happy and I wish those times will stay forever. I love having conversation with other people and those memories make me satisfied and happy. However, those new materials such as phones and laptops will only make you satisfy you ONLY A YEAR because there are NEW PHONES OR LAPTOP EVERY YEAR. So I believe materials and money can't make you satisfied at all. Only true homies and fam will make you happy and satisfied. <3

I don't think complete satisfaction is ever possible. Thinking about human nature, as you mentioned, we have a instinct to feel greed, to want more than we can have. Even if we get whatever we wanted, we will find new goals or thing to want. Just because we see others who are less fortunate doesn't mean that we feel satisfied, for we merely feel a period of pity. It doesn't diminish our wishes; it could possibly make them stronger because we want them achieved before we lose everything else. What makes me satisfied, personally, is being able to provide for and fend for myself. I don't want to ever have to worry about financial troubles or worry about not being able to protect myself when attacked. I also want recognition, not from my current high school peers, but when I enter the workforce. I want others to acknowledge that I possess an ability that they wish they could have, a skill that surpuncooles others around me.

Being completely satisfied doesn't seem to be possible to me. As a human, we are genetically coded with some instinct and greed is one of them. So as we get something we want more which is doesn't let us to be satisfied. Also we seek for something new all the time. So that doesn't allow us to be satisfied either.
