Taking this pleasure thing a little seriously, OP still doesn't seem to get it. He comes across as a simple selfish hedonist, but that's no way to sustain pleasure in the long run. There are plenty of rich people who can do drugs, get drunk, **** around and who are still miserable because their lifestyles are unfulfilling. Pleasure comes in many forms, not all hedonistic. F.ex people generally feel satisfaction at solving problems, having meaningful social interaction or from doing something good for others. The secret to a good life should involve many such pleasures, for example from overcoming problems to loving someone, to having meaningful relationships etc.
