Solon, the Athenian statesman and lawmaker, interacted with Croesus, the wealthy king of Lydia, during a visit to his court. Croesus, impressed by Solon's wisdom, sought to learn about the nature of happiness and asked who the happiest person was. Solon replied that the truly happy man was not Croesus, but rather Tellus the Athenian, who lived a virtuous life and died heroically. This exchange highlighted Solon's belief that wealth does not equate to happiness, a lesson that Croesus ultimately realized when he faced his downfall.
