It's because no one is immune and because all those material things don't bring peace (Jesus does).

It seems like the more money you have, the more worries you get....

Money doesn't solve everything. People will still have problems regardless of status.

I think there is more to it then just isolated suicides.... sometimes there is more than meets the eye.  Like why was Kate Spade's husband wearing a Bernard the mouse from Rescuers, face mask two days after she killed herself... bizarre.

& why would anyone kill themselves by strangulation from a door *bleep*.... and then multiples at once.  Just all seems suspect.

I don't pity anyone who takes his/her own life! Especially, those so damn rich it's sicking!What do they have to be depressed about, the fact that so many people are living& dying in poverty, starving to death & these super rich spoiled butt heads feel they have nothing to live for. They're just so bored with themselves killing themselves is just one more thing that money can't buy. Especially, those who claim to be christain,.... the teaching saying you don't have the right to take your own life. Only, the creator they worship has that right. Why  you'll go straight to hell when you do. The sad thing about this sin people commit is that in the end, you can't take it back!

The truth is, we don't know what is going on in a celebrity's life until they pass and even then you will never get the full story as to why.

I don't think it matters if you are rich or poor.

Most people don't even seek out help for their issues, let alone admit them to themselves or reach out to those that are close to them. It's a sad and scary thing, but it's true.  :( Money doesn't buy happiness, and money at your disposal clearly doesn't always mean a clear road to mental health.

It does not matter if they're rich or not. They are famous people who were very talented. They will be missed.

anthony bourdain, ask Hillary

Oh, for Pete's sake!  Are you for real?  I hope you were just trying to be funny (the subject is definitely NOT funny) or sarcastic.

Why would they not? People use what they have at the time they decide they are done with life.

That is a sorry attitude. And nobody asked for your pity. As has been stated money does not buy happiness. You have no idea what people are dealing with.

Just because somebody is rich does not mean they are spoiled or a butthead. You sound really jealous because others have something you do not.  There are a lot of people who have money who have worked hard to get where they are.

And the Bible does NOT say you will go to Hell if you kill yourself.  I do not know where anybody who has actually read the Bible gets that from.

People have problems and everybody has their own demons they are dealing with.  It must be nice to have a perfect life where everything is grand.  People end their own life for a lot of reasons.  I know a man who shot himself in the head because he had cancer. He was at the end stages. There was nothing they could do and the pain was more than he could bear. He was tired of being sick and he was tired of hurting.  He wasn't a bad person.  No I don't think he made the right decision but I do not have the right to put him down for doing what he done.  I also do not think he went to Hell for what he done. And no he didn't "claim" to be a Christian. He WAS a Christian.

It is easy to sit and judge others when your perfect life has never had any lows or downs.  And apparently that is what you are living. Otherwise you could show a little sympathy.
