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.
It's just that poor people need less money for happiness, unlike rich people. Everything is relative and if a poor person starts earning more money, then his requests and needs will change and he will not be as happy as before. There are cases when lottery winners are in no hurry to take their jackpots and show their face to the rest of the people, because they are not sure that they will be as happy as before after receiving a win. There are also known facts when seemingly strong families broke up after a big win and money broke up people. Each case is unique and even in a particular case, everything can change over time.

There is a popular opinion in the locale that "A man who has money doesn't easily get angry or offended, lol". This statement goes the other way as well, that "A man who doesn't have money is easily offended by everything and everyone".

I have put this statement on analysis a lot in mind, trying to watch my mood and correlate my happiness with the amount of money I have each time. Everytime it seems like i have overspent and almost becoming broke, there is a feeling of irritation and sadness that comes with it. Also when i get some credit alerts, there is an associated joy.

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)


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


Money and happiness in my opinion are interrelated. Happiness without money is a lie. A lot of money but not being happy is a loss. This is our life must be balanced , choose both to live happily with abundant money . This all can be applied if you have a lot of money and have a heart, I think it will be balanced
Both money and happiness we must have it all because to meet the needs of life requires money,
indeed money can't buy everything but everything needs money more or less like that,
Happiness is also needed by everyone and not always happiness comes from money

Money and happiness are linked, go hand in hand.  “If you have money, you have everything” is a saying I often hear from neighbors, friends, working through conversations.  In a practical sense, it is true and not true.  Some modern men and women also rely on a level of wealth to get together, in fact, they can be happy but many people don't know what love is?  Lol, some families always have the idea of ​​"food and property" for their children, on what basis?  also rich.  Even myself, when doing a good job, paying more, investing more profitable, the feeling is indescribable, that is happiness.  On the contrary, bitterness, contempt, and contempt are always overwhelming and some people become discouraged in this regard.  I think this is also the nature of modern times.  The wealth and power of money is also pressure.
The pressure of wealth also breeds nuance, envy, greed.

This is also some arrange marriages work well because the more money a man has can be loved so much by a well-taken care girl. Poor couples usually fight over how does and bring food to the table. You have to see this reality now before you go into a married life because it's a very ugly fight actually. So ugly that you don't want to hear your wife asking what to prepare on the table. Sad but true. Money is accompanied by happiness.

Money is part of life,. When money gets prioritised relationships weren't given importance. This is wrong attitude and this is where problem arises. In this fast moving world it is very difficult to live without money, but at the same time one should have the calculated space for everything. Poor people have a satisfied mind if they're able to get the daily bread. Rich one wants to make more and reach next level of living standard which isn't possible without money.

Today the world has become more fast moving, and the families have contracted. 2-3 decades ago, family relationships used to be very strong and people use to help each other whenever someone needs support. But now nuclear families are the norm, and the younger generation don't even interact with their relatives. As a result, when a need arises, everyone is on their own. And in such circumstances, money is all that matters. If you don't have money, then you will find yourselves in trouble. Because there is no one else to help you.

To some extent, money guarantees happiness. Should you look into the thoughts of a poor man, you might understand this. I don't think, there is a poor man that could be so satisfied that he or she is poor and would just be about that and be happy with himself or herself. The singular thought that, you've got bills to pay, tuition if you've got kids, mouths to feed in terms of food, mortgage should you have one and keeping the money source you've got amidst looking out for expansion comes at a great cost of annoyance. For a rich or wealthy person, the odds are different,  your most likely not to worry over most things and as such, you live a fairly happy life. Hence, it could be said, money has bought you some happiness but, you can only be happy if your stable with what you've got.

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.

Money can make a person feel economically secure, which means it will keep him from worrying and of course this is a medium to increase self-confidence. Money can increase everyone's self-confidence, so that it can make us all always get positive energy from that security. We are safe from starvation, we don't have to worry about where to sleep, we don't have to worry about work, because we have a lot of money.
Realistically, I really need money, even making it the number one destination in the world.

You know this phrase: money cannot buy happiness. It turns out that this is not entirely correct. Money can buy a certain degree of life satisfaction, depending on how much wealth you have and how you spend it.
 With more money, people have a greater sense of control over their lives. If you have more money, you can choose how to spend your time and how to guide your life. Low-income earners are seven times more likely to report handling billing issues than others. Far from the most important thing, for these people, happiness is actually not affected by how much they earn. Therefore, those who have low incomes but can still create a life they like may find that they don't really miss having more money. The ability to meet basic needs without having to do multiple jobs at the same time also means that you are more likely to have time to spend time with friends and family, which is important for happiness.
Not a certain degree but almost all on angle where money is really part of happiness since you can buy everything you do want and do able to do on what you do have in mind.

Its true that there might be some things which can be bought but you can still able to make yourself happy if you do failed up.Not that really im that greedy but it could really buy happiness.

You would really chose up on having tons of it no matter what would be the situation you are in comparing into have none which we dont like to experience.

In my opinion, each person has a different concept of happiness and money. For example, a rich person has a lot of money but is not happy because their money has exchanged for happiness called fake. but on the contrary, a person is very poor but one has a happy family, a warm family but no money, so money can't go hand in hand with happiness, it's just a standard and a peaceful way of life for each person.
Everyone has a different perception on how much money can affect your happiness. Making enough to make a living while being able to set money aside for purchases or travelling is generally a reasonable way of thinking.

I'm currently achieving what I've mentioned earlier, while being a student at the same time. Unfortunately, I'm not working on the field I'm studying, yet.

It is realy true that money can bring happines even though some people saying it isn't but it is. But it can also bring unhappines in an instant.  It is all about how people view of what happiness is, because happiness can have a different definitions to everyone.
People always says money can't buy happiness but on my opinion it's wrong. If I can rate it, 20% - money can't buy happiness but 80% money can buy happiness.
Many people found happiness when they travel, that needs money
Many people found happiness when they can build their own house or any other materials things, that needs money
Many people found happiness when they can provide everything they need (schooling, shopping, and even donating to charity), it needs money.
Especially today that the price of goods and services that everyone needs is rising and rising and the income that they receive is still the same it can be hard to be happy.

Money cant buy happiness..
Money cant buy time
Money cant buy Loyal
Money cant buy Health
Money cant buy Love
Money cant buy Respect
Money cant buy Manners
Money cant buy Character
Money cant buy Friendship

Those words are always heard from the mouths of people who live in luxury for the purpose of entertaining the poor. If we talk about reality, then money is a goal that poor people must get in order to get a better life.

Some people stick with their idealistic cover to cover their laziness in taking a new step to earn a lot of money. I prefer people who work hard to earn a lot of money, and use their money for the benefit of themselves and those around them.

Money can buy happiness, when a person does not feel worried that his economic condition will be destroyed because they still have a lot of money ready to treat.

and there's more..Yes, these are things which other rich man people or financially independent is looking for.

There's no such thing about perfect life but having lots of money could really give out that satisfaction in terms of  physical things.

Yes, physical satisfaction that will increase confidence internally. I am one of those who have experienced it.

There is no equal sign between wealth and happiness. Rich does not mean happiness. Money can buy a lot, but not health, love and knowledge, but the purpose of many people making money is to be happier. You may have a rich pocket, but your head is empty.
Money can't bring happiness for anyone but In handling life money is essential for all spheres. Some people always Rich but not happy but some people always poor but happy. So money and happiness completely a different subject.
If both issues are separate topics, why are both issues still being discussed so much in reality shows as well as in magazines and interviews? Happiness and money seem to be friends as well as enemies to many people's interpretation because of the fact, happiness in life will always at least some times have an aspect of money, spending more money will bring great happiness but it can also be controversial when life is lacking money, even using money selfishly and trampling on the happiness of a family or a good relationship

Money can't buy everything because everyone's needs are different, some people have high needs, some have low needs, for example, Mr. A and Mr. B work and live different lives. earn 1k $ a month. and Mr. A sees a salary of 1k $, he is quite satisfied, on the contrary, Mr. B also receives that salary but always has high needs and goals, so he feels unsatisfied and unhappy. So, happy money or not is your own creation if you are always satisfied with what you have.

Several psychological studie have found a weak correlation between money and happiness, that's not to say that money in itself is bad because of course there's a lot of negative emotions attached to a lack of it.

I agree with you, there's a point at which the amount of money one has doesn't add to the individual's happiness. Material possessions might even increase one's unhappiness at this point because human needs are insatiable. However, at this point if the individual spends money on a charitable cause, solving one or two problems around the world or in his or her community their level of happiness increases moderately. Talk about Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Elon Musk etc.

So here I believe that how one spends money no matter how little is a better determinant of how happy 😁 that person would be.

money and happiness. Poor people always think that money is the main happiness, but according to rich people power is the main happiness. there are many rich people who are willing to spend a lot of money for political purposes. even though they are selected the salary they get is not commensurate with the money they spend. meaning that our own happiness determines!
it is inseparable from human natural ambition. where rich people who already have a lot of money want to have positions so that they have a name to be respected by many people. but here sometimes they look for positions with business calculations, so the capital spent to look for positions must be returned with a profit, so the illegal path is taken
