May he rest in peace. Saw a few of his shows.

Suicide has always been an issue everywhere. In the U.S, the rates has climbed by 25% in the last few years.

His death comes days after the suicide of another much-loved celebrity, 55-year-old fashion designer Kate Spade, in New York.

US government health officials on Thursday said the nation's suicides had risen by 30% since 1999, and that the crisis was a growing problem. Nearly 45,000 Americans died by suicide in 2016.

Everyone has to keep breathing and keep fighting for a better tomorrow. Find a purpose to live for.

That's why my answer is 'depends' on the individual cases when people make ignorant claims like "rich people are happy and poor people are sad"..
