There is a great line that I, unfortunately, can not attribute:
"Anyone who says that money can't buy happiness just doesn't know where to shop!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's true that money itself can buy you a boatload of happiness!. But it also comes with plenty of problems of its own!. Unhappiness in life often comes from poor decisions and/or poor abilities to handle them!. Being rich can encourage exactly this kind of behavior if your personality is one that's susceptible to it!.

I think when you compare rich people who really DO appear to be happy--like Bill Gates or Warren Buffet--with those who, to quote that famous poet, lead lives of quiet desperation--like Kurt Cobain or Paris Hilton--you can see the differences in their personalities!. The happy ones tend to be mature, intelligent, and at least a little wise!. The ones always screwing up are temperamental, impulsive, and usually very immature!.

I know I'd sure be happy with a cool million in the bank!. Heck, if I had just a quarter of that, I could retire and live off the income!. (If invested right you can earn about 1% a month, which on $250K would be about $2,500 a month, plenty here in the Midwest where cost of living is cheap!.) I really wouldn't need a mansion & Ferrari to be happy, not because I have anything against money, just that it's not my lifestyle!.

good morning brother
how are you!?
great question

1 yes you are 100% right money can buy happiness but human desires had no end,today you want ferrari next day you will want a plane,so human desires had no end!.you are thinking about ferari but when you will get it,and will use it,it will have no more importance for you!.

2 happiness is subjective i had seen in my life,that many rich humans are also unhappy,they have money but not love,they are in tension to how they can secure there money and many other problems in life!.
there are many less rich humans who are more happy because they got love!.

3 too much rich is not good,too much poor is not good middle class is the best!.

4 if the father is rich,and father fullfill all the desire of there kids,wife than they will remain happy,if father will not give them money,they will became angry,so it is true money buy happiness

5 scientists report of sweden

It is not a lie!.!.!.

Money cannot BUY Happiness
Money cannot BUY Wisdom
Money cannot BUY Health
and what I find to be most interesting is!.!.!.!.!.no matter how much money some people have, they just can never afford Class!.

And another thing I have noticed!.!.!.!.it is not the rich who drive Ferrari’s and dress in high brand clothes- but the poor who wish they were rich!.!.!.!.I've known rich people who drive ford escorts and dress in clothes you would think came from a thrift store !.!.!.

If it is just a Ferrari and a million dollars in your bank account that would make you happy- then by all means!.!.!.!.!.DO IT !

I COMPLETELY agree with you man!! Im SOOO sick and tired of ppl saying "money cant buy happiness!."!!! Ok there are things that go with being rich that may not be very 'good' such as having to work long hours etc!. BUT!.!.!.!.!.I live in a poor town!.!.!.!.(my parents are middle class but in my town we are considered "rich")!.!.!.!.!.MOST ppl here are EXTREMELY angry, bitter, and depressed!.!.!.!.!.soooo!.!.!.!.THIS IS JUST A LIE PEOPLE SAY TO MAKE PEOPLE WHO DONT HAVE MONEY FEEL BETTER!!!

Sure!.!.!.!.there are situations where money doesnt matter!.!.!.!.if your child dies at a young age, you have cancer!.!.!.!.!.all the money in the world will not help you!.

But consider this!.!.!.!.!.(EXCLUDING "HOLLYWOOD/CELEBRITIES"), the MAJORITY of smokers, alcoholics, and drug addicts are PEOPLE WHO ARE POOR!.!.!.!.!.!.let me tell you!.!.!.!.you wouldnt be smoking weed everday, or shooting heroin if you were happy with you life now would you!?!?!?!?

Essentially what I am saying while money doesnt GUARANTEE happiness!.!.!.!.your CHANCES of being happy SKYROCKET!.!.!.!.wheather ppl want to admit it or not!.

The people who say money doesnt buy happiness are usually people who dont have any---OR ppl who have money, but have something money cant cure such as a death of a child or a terminal illness!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some one that had none!.

Much of what we would call good luck might really be bad luck; the smile of fortune that bestows unearned leisure and undeserved wealth may be the greatest of our afflictions; the apparent cruelty of a perverse fate that heaps tribulation upon some suffering mortal may in reality be the tempering fire that is transmuting the soft iron of immature personality into the tempered steel of real character!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Even Kurt Cobain confessed that money doesn't buy happiness!. And we're all well aware of his ultimate demise !.!.!. and he had a boatload of money!. A cool mil in my bank might *temporarily* feel like happiness but in the end if there is nothing tangible to go along with that, it means squat!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

The one who made that must be some idiot or some poor father lying to his children!.
happiness is living a good life, happiness is enjoyment, happiness is having a good moments!. you can buy all does with money!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Many fathers have the money to throw angrily at their children, but no happiness that they have it!. Happiness comes from within, not without!. No matter what is happening outside, we can be happy if we so choose!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Have you never been disappointed by the realization of a fantasy before!? Eventually you will come to see that nothing is ever as good as you imagine it to be!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some poor parent probably first told that lie to their children to explain why, in a comforting way, they don't have nice things!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
