Greek wisdom: live with your friends

The School of Life's video on Epicurus. Epicurus was the first Greek philosopher to study happiness, rather than meaning and purpose, according to The School of Life. This video breaks down what they found (they have a complementary video that will surprise you on monasticism). Epicurean living became a huge movement and I have to say: if I had the money to buy a big place in NYC, I'd be into trying it today. FWIW: I have been burning a load of time on these School of Life YouTube videos later.
