Happiness is a subjective thing and money can be a source of it for many people, we just don't want to admit it because we were conditioned to believe that wanting money and saying that money for you is everything is a bad thing. For me, as long as my needs and occasional wants are fulfilled by money till my death, it's enough for me to be happy.

Yeah, there's no need to lie to yourself to make other people feel good about the existence of money. Because actually we need money in different portions. It all depends on basic needs.
And if someone always follows additional needs such as a car, iphone12, luxury house, rare toys, etc. believe me it will lead to greed in a person.

I have the same view on the subject, there are people who just can't get enough, they won't be satisfied with any amount of money. I've mentioned before, as long as my needs are satisfied and I'm able to save a reasonable amount of money, I'll be fine.

What is your opinion on the subject of "money & happiness"?


Interesting study in the OP, but too conventional.

IMO the people who are not happy with nothing won't be happy with everything neither. Yesterday I went for a walk with a friend of mine when suddenly an old indigent with some Gandalf beard appeared on a rusty bike, with his dog running full throttle, and Deep Purple max volume. You can imagine the scene, epic.

I don't think many people on a Ferrari and a bimbo would be much happier than him. Somebody should measure it scientifically but I would be surprised if the man in the expensive car won. Happiness is subjective and with the proper self control I think that you can modulate it, even when consumer society has teached us otherwise for decades.
Because, in reality, we all have different preferences, and each person is unique, there is no such thing as a universal definition of happiness; it is highly subjective. Not everyone needs expensive things to be happy; we all have our own tastes, experiences, and lives; some of us are already content with what we have and can enjoy life with it. We can't really compare each individual's happiness, which is one of the aspects we differ from one another. I want money but money doesn't make happiness, the only reason why I like money is that it's the pathway to reach my true happiness.

Money can't buy happiness but it can buy the thing which bring happiness I am not sure how many people think money is not everything but I have seen so many people who were begging money not the happiness I know so many people who have lot's of money but they are not happy and I also know people who don't have money but they are happy everyone has different way to live happy maybe it with money or without it.

Money can't buy happiness because the measure everyone's of happiness is different, for me money can buy anything I want and this is my happiness, the best way to be able to give and help others is with money so money can make everything easy and make everyday to happy.

Money can turned things to something that someone will make it happy, the logic still remains that money can't buy happiness
but it can turned it if being used well.

And the fact that people always find ways to see what difines happiness for them, not jsut becuase of money but there are something else.
Yes, that's absolutely true and we don't have to deny that when we buy something we want it can certainly make us happy,
and to buy also requires money so I think both money and happiness are related,
What is clear is that we should not be hypocritical that happiness is more important because without money we also cannot meet the needs of life

Money can't buy happiness there are two different things which are both highly correlated to one another.Many people are happy and satisfied when they have enough money and vice-versa.To some extent it can help lift up one's state of emotion but on the the other hand it cant solve all issues in life and bring about absolute happiness at all.

You are a funny person.  Grin Grin
Please, can you tell me one particular person that doesn't have money and he/she looks happy.
Money may not get all the happiness but tell me where poverty has brought joy to. Money is the only thing that can satisfy your life and needs, it makes one exceptional and brings one true self comfort.
To even say that you wear a signature for been paid, why not do it free since you are happy.

I have always thought that I could be happier if I can actually buy all the things that my home is missing.
Months ago I felt very stressed because I needed to work more because I had a sick aunt and I assumed the expenses.
After that moment I was filled with happiness because she recovered her health remarkably.
Now I have matured more and I feel that happiness is earned every time we feel healthy because I learned to value well-being in itself.
Money makes us happy because it takes away the worry of meeting our needs, but we perceive true happiness from the first moment in each awakening.

happiness is a complex word that everyone can interpret this word with their own opinions and versions, as has been speculated here some say that money is the source of happiness and some say that friends and peace of mind are the source of happiness. why did this happen? that's because it goes back to everyone's principle of how to look for their view of happiness itself.
but if we look in the mirror with reality and want to be realistic, I am interested in wise words that often appear on social media or advertisements that read "Money can't buy happiness, but having money is happier"

YES, it's true that the context of the question of money and happiness is very sensitive. Because if they are paired they can't be side by side, they complement each other, have money, 80% of them can be sure they are happy, they are happy and have money, it is certain that their lives are filled with blessings.
Many people assume that rich people will certainly be happy. but in my opinion happiness must be balanced between money and soul, after that the money you have can be used to help people in need. Of course this will add a sense of peace in life

Happiness is what we get on things that made us more comfortable or be within our comfort zone. Other people only got smile because of money, but they're actually wrong on that state; we can be happy without money since there's a lot of things will put joy to us like spending time with family. Money is only a secondary tool for us to fund on our needs, sometimes both of them will come together in times of abundant lives.
We live in a material world and in order to provide even the minimum needs for our normal life, we need certain material benefits that can be provided to us as a substitute for these material benefits - money. If we have money, and therefore material wealth, we will feel comfortable and instead of the need and need for making money, we will have the opportunity to use free time for our spiritual improvement, which is actually the purpose and meaning of our life. Money cannot replace much in our life, but with the right attitude to life and to money, we will have much more opportunity to realize what is the meaning of our life.

I know it is not proper to tie your happiness to finance, but i did some research into the subject and found a study that was conducted with the result that happiness increases with the amount of money one makes up until a point  where there is no greater degree of happiness from making money, but unhappiness if ones income drops beneath that range.

(See study here - https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/20/how-much-money-you-need-to-be-happy-according-to-wealth-experts.html)
Never thought studies into this subject matter were undertaken but I like the conclusion that was drawn, everything has a limit to what extent it can go. But between money and happiness, you want unlimited happiness because this usually leads to great connections with people, money can make things happen but it can be a source of problems.


What is your opinion on the subject of "money & happiness"?
It's very difficult to separate the two because both mimic each other in one way or another,  happiness is original while money can get you synthetic happiness which is the happiness you don't want because it will get you fake friends  and fake relationships but when it's done this happiness you thought you had will be gone too.

I have noticed such things too that I become happier when I get money and when coins or projects I invest in are growing. I am trying to completely untie emotions from investments. They are our enemies when you are working as a trader or, especially, as an investor. Adults and especially aged people often say that we should get rid of material values and think more about spirituality, but is it easy?

This fact shows that money is indeed valuable, but there are many things that are far more valuable than money. Almost anything can be bought with money, but the word almost means there are some things that count. Money is indeed very useful and useful for our lives, but not everything.

The question of whether money can make people happy actually goes back to the measure of happiness from humans themselves. While we know very well that in this world there are many people, who of course have their own standards and standards of happiness. We can't even equate the contents of two people's heads with the exact same, let alone millions and even billions of people on earth.

Bringing the fact so well, I like that idea of different standards of  happiness, not just saying but reality in life, there are rich people who already got most of the money inside their banks but happy enough to feel contentment,

While there are people who lives around rural areas , people from third world countries who are okay eating 2-3 times a day but you'll
see happiness in them encircling with the family.

The Standard Protocol - Solving Inflation

Money can't buy happiness but it can help you to be happy, better to cry on a roof that doesn't leak and have a car and an insurance and investment rather than smiling through without any way to find food for the next day, being happy without money is just ignoring the problem which is being broke.
its how the world works when you dont have money you think money is everything, but when you have a lot money you will said money is not everything and money cant buy you a happiness. Its undoubtly that money been a crucial things in our life. Its the thing that could help you to fulfill your need for living and also seems live with a lot money is much easier than living in poverty. So i Think the conclusions is The way people see money and happiness would be different and its affected by how good their financially, in my opinion if all people have the same ammount of money i think people will think money couldnt buy happiness cause we never satisfied with what we have and we always searching for something more which is limitless.

They said money can't buy happiness but in reality on todays situation people will be more happier if there is money. We can't be happy if we look at our family without food, a good shelters to live happy life and a money for health purpose, the world is already not the world before that we can comfortably live without money because today everything is all at ease if we have money.

I agree that happiness can be found when we are in our respective comfort zones, therefore sometimes poor people can be happy even though they
are still in financial difficulties. While rich people are not necessarily happy, they can buy whatever they want. So the key in living our lives is to be
grateful for what we have, do not always compare economic conditions with the rich. But we must be able to compare economic conditions with
people whose economic conditions are more difficult than ours. That way we can get happiness in life, because we already understand what it means
to be grateful.
