THE tragic life and death of Friends star Matthew Perry illustrates a sad contradiction: Success and money can bring happiness — but NOT when the motivating forces are unstoppable inner demons that can never be satisfied.

In his youth, he was the 17th-ranked junior tennis player in Canada and when he died, he’d been nominated for five Emmys, a total of 34 acting awards and had $150 million in the bank.
