Material goods do not satisfy emotional needs

It could be that they don't have a special person to share it with. If that is the case I wish them the best of luck in finding that someone.
If that is not the case then maybe it is because they have everything and there is no challenge left for them. They may want to try to come up with some creative ideas and execute them.
It may also be they can not have a child. Then they would need to search fertility methods or adoption procedures. Working with children may also help or even volunteering with them.
Depression or Lack of love, neglect are also possibilities. I think if these were the reason counseling would be a great help.
Hope this helped answer your question!!!
Have a Great Night!!! :O)

how could you have everything? if you dont have someone to love you i could you have everything? you can have all the money in the world and still feel empty because somewhere deep inside, you dont feel you accomplishment enough. there could be alot of reason. most of the time i feel empty is when i feel like i havent accomplished certain things that i might have really want to do and didnt do well in that area. I think it all has to do with what missing in your life only you know the answer to that.

You need to do something nice for someone else, they is no greater joy than helping others and it does not have to be with money. Just give some one a ride that needs it, donate time at the school.......read to the elderly, it really does make you feel valuable and it is needed. These older people live on basically NOTHING, if you know an older person, fix them a fruit basket or take them to lunch, give them a gift certificate to have their hair done...........you will feel so much better.

researchers have found that happy and fullfilled people tend to:
have a high self esteem
have a satisfying marriage or other love relationship
have a meaningful religious faith
be socially outgoing
sleep well
excercise
be employed...
a person who feels empty should figure OuT what they're lacking and make every effort to attain it... liefs too short. not to have enlightenment.. look deep inside...and find your true self and ask what it is that you really want don't be afraid to come completely out of denial.

The realization that you can never have everything.
Having is an illusion.
You think you have everything when in fact everything has you.
You are controlled by the things you seek to control.
In order to feel full all you realy need in love, love for yourself as well as love for others. When you can appreciate yourself in this manner you can be truly happy, and feel truly beautiful and know that if tomorrow you should lose all you possess you can never loose that love.
Happiness comes from within.

It is bred into us through evolution. The persons who felt that they had stored up enough food for the winter would sometimes die during a long winter. Those who were never satisfied and store up too much food would always survive and reproduce.
You are only here if you ancestors survived long enough to reporduce, so you come from a long line of people who were never satisfied with what they had.

having everything can be a problem, how to hold on to everything you have for instance, money does not love you, like glory it is fleeting. You still face the same thing everyone faces, boy/girlfriend, marriage, sex, children, to name a few. One must love oneself if they are to love anybody else first and foremost. Finding a release to the dogma of everyday life is what and why we seek what we don't/can't have, it is a never ending battle in which we all must participate.

You feel empty because you are missing the spiritual part of yourself, its not that easy to obtain, once you find your spiritual side you will be whole and you will no need to have any one or things to give you that sense of fullness.

Their value system is maybe false. It is possible that they did not obtain what they have in the right way. They put too much emphasis on material goods and their standing in the System and not on things that are real. They measure the value of things using the wrong criteria.

That person is not happy!
This person who has everything . . .did they go to the love store and buy a Plen-T-Pak of love?
I saw a coupon for some extra strength happiness from Shop-Rite for this weekend too.
